Sungrow Hydrogen’s electrolyser system has begun producing green hydrogen in Hubei, China, integrating both alkaline and PEM electrolysers in joint operation.
A 200 Nm³/hr PEM electrolyser and a 1,000 Nm³/hr alkaline electrolyser have been deployed to jointly produce hydrogen for the transportation sector, including fuelling hydrogen-powered buses operating locally.
Additionally, the project developer will explore using abandoned mines for underground hydrogen storage in China. In an online statement, Sungrow said, “The underground hydrogen storage solution sets a new benchmark for future green hydrogen developments worldwide.”
AI-driven systems will also optimise renewable power matching and real-time safety control.
Sungrow Hydrogen has played an active role in advancing China’s hydrogen market through its involvement in a range of hydrogen-focused initiatives.
Last September, its alkaline electrolyser began operating at the Shanxi Yulin Coal Chemical Industry Base, capable of producing 1,200 Nm³/hr.
Last month, the electrolyser-making subsidiary of Sungrow announced it would supply around 96MW of alkaline electrolysers to a major hydrogen-based e-methanol project in Inner Mongolia.
Sungrow Hydrogen targets European hydrogen market for 2025
Sungrow Hydrogen sees significant potential in the European market, but stronger communication with hydrogen industry developers will be key to unlocking this opportunity, according to General Manager, Jason Jin.
The Chinese alkaline and PEM electrolyser manufacturer attended the Hydrogen Technology Expo in Hamburg, Germany, last month (October), intending to connect with key players in the European hydrogen industry.
Jin told H2 View that he sees great potential for Sungrow in the European market, but added that many on the continent “don’t know enough about Sungrow Hydrogen.”
