The project will involve solar electrolysis of water for hydrogen production, hydrogen storage and transportation, hydrogenation stations, hydrogen energy transportation demonstration applications, and coupling with modern coal chemical industry to produce high-end new chemical materials. The project has a total investment of 1.4 billion yuan, with a total annual production of 160 million standard cubic meters of hydrogen per year and a by-product of 80 million standard cubic meters of oxygen per year. It is expected to achieve annual sales revenue of 600 million yuan, reduce coal resource consumption by 254,000 tons and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 445,000 tons per year. The current phase of the project is in progress. It is Ningxia’s first hydrogen energy industry project and the largest integrated renewable energy hydrogen production and storage project in China.
4. Jinko Technology In 2019, Jinko Technology said: "By 2025, the great progress in "photovoltaic + energy storage" hydrogen production system technology will be economically feasible for large-scale application ". To this end, the company has made arrangements both at home and abroad: abroad, it signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Air Products in 2020, and the two parties will cooperate in the field of photovoltaic new energy, combining "hydrogen production" with "green electricity"; domestically, , the company strives to promote the implementation of renewable energy hydrogen production projects.
5. Datang Group In August 2020, in order to improve the development layout of China Datang Group’s new energy power generation on-site hydrogen production industry, Yungang Thermal Power Company as the specific project undertaking unit launched a 6MW on-site photovoltaic The hydrogen production technology demonstration project was settled in Datong City, Shanxi Province. As an important support for Datang Group's major scientific and technological innovation and an important research platform for large-scale hydrogen production from renewable energy, the project isIn progress in an orderly manner.
6. Elion Clean Energy In February 2021, Elion Resources Group, the parent company of Elion Clean Energy, signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Beijing Energy Group. The two parties will carry out in-depth cooperation in new industries such as photovoltaic hydrogen production.
7. Great Wall Motors In March 2021, Great Wall Motors held a hydrogen energy strategy conference, stating that it would use photovoltaic hydrogen production and invest another 3 billion yuan in research and development in the field of hydrogen energy to reach 10,000 It will set the scale of production capacity and aim to rank among the top three in the global hydrogen energy market by 2025.
8. Xinjiang Kuqa Photovoltaic Hydrogen Production Project According to a report from Sinopec News Network in early March 2021, Guangzhou (Luoyang) Engineering Company launched the Xinjiang Kuqa Photovoltaic Hydrogen Production Project to obtain the presidential preparation and feasibility study preparation Work. The hydrogen production project plans to build 1,000MW photovoltaic power generation, supplemented by local green power resources such as abandoned wind and light, and a supporting construction of a 20,000 tons/year green power hydrogen production plant. After the project is completed, it will become the world's largest green hydrogen production project. The project is led by Guangzhou (Luoyang) Engineering Company as the overall project institute, responsible for the project acquisition, design of power transmission and distribution systems, electrolysis of water for hydrogen production, hydrogen transmission and storage, and system supporting units. The Eleventh Design Institute of Information Industry Electronics is responsible for photovoltaic power generation. For unit design, China Grid United Energy Services Co., Ltd. is responsible for integrating local green power resources and handling transaction matters in Xinjiang.

1. International giants join forces, and hydrogen production projects continue to set new records. In the international market, photovoltaic hydrogen production has begun to be implemented, and the more famous ones are Fukushima in Japan. Hydrogen energy research base. The base is the world's largest renewable energy hydrogen production plant, covering a total area of 220,000 square meters. Among them, 180,000 square meters are photovoltaic power generation areas and 40,000 square meters are hydrogen production workshops. The system equipment has a hydrogen production capacity of 10,000 kilowatts. In addition, the world’s largest green hydrogen project is also breaking records. In July 2020, Air Products, ACWA Power (Saudi International Electricity and Water Company) and NEOM announced the signing of an agreement to jointly invest US$5 billion to build a world-class green hydrogen-based ammonia plant in Saudi Arabia using renewable energy. factory. Set to come on stream in 2025, the project includes innovative integration of more than 4GW of solar and wind renewable electricity; 650 tonnes of hydrogen per day via electrolysis using thyssenkrupp technology; and air separation using Air Products technology Produce nitrogen; use Haldor Topsoe's technology to produce 1.2 million tons of green ammonia annually. According to incomplete statistics: as of the end of 2020, the 13 largest green hydrogen production projects under development worldwide are all above the gigawatt level, totaling 61GW. These major projects are mainly distributed in Western Europe, South America, the Middle East, Australia and other places.
2. The cost of photovoltaics has been significantly reduced, and domestic companies are actively deploying it. At present, coal-based hydrogen production is the most mature and cheapest hydrogen production method in China, and its cost is about 70% to 80% of that of natural gas hydrogen production. renewable energyThe cost of hydrogen production by source power generation through electrolysis of water mainly depends on power generation efficiency and cost. With the expansion of industrial scale and technological progress in wind power, photovoltaic power generation and other industries, there is still room for a significant decrease in the cost of hydrogen production from renewable energy.
