Across China: Hydrogen energy fuels green development in Inner Mongolia



Across China: Hydrogen energy fuels green development in Inner Mongolia

Xinhua | 2024-10-17

HOHHOT, Oct. 17 (Xinhua) -- At a hydrogen production and fueling station of Shengyuan Energy in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, hydrogen-powered heavy trucks drive in and out, replenishing their fuel supply.

The hydrogen produced at the station, located in Ejin Horo Banner in the city of Ordos, is close to 100 percent purity. "We can produce 2,000 cubic meters of hydrogen per hour, and the daily hydrogenation capacity is 1 tonne, meeting the demand of 60 hydrogen-powered trucks," said Su Jianjun, head of the hydrogen station.

The station is one of 450 similar facilities nationwide, and reflects the rapid growth of the hydrogen industry in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

As of April 2024, the region had approved the implementation of 39 hydrogen production projects integrating both wind and solar power, supporting 21.36 million kilowatts of new energy and 855,000 tonnes of green hydrogen...

...The real green hydrogen can be made using renewable energy such as solar and wind energy instead of fossil energy to power the water electrolysis. The abundant wind and solar energy in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region can fuel the continuous and reliable production of green hydrogen...more

Kuqa Green Hydrogen Pilot Project: Pioneering China's Clean Energy Future

Xinhua | 2024-10-18


While a few extremely rude, arrogant, belligerent people still living in the world of the 1980's work against green progress, literally hundreds of thousands of Chinese engineers are working to build a greener future. It's a replay of the 15 year old rise to dominance of the Chinese solar industry all over again for anyone to see (those that bother). Today's Americans aren't going to catch China - in H2 development OR solar, that ship sailed years ago.
