Mondo Science Updated on 2024-01-31

On December 29, the first civil 40 cubic meter liquid hydrogen tanker in China was successfully developed and a product launch conference was held, the successful development of the equipment marks China's major progress in the production of liquid hydrogen, storage, transportation and filling and other key technical equipment and safety research, indicating that the application of hydrogen energy technology in China has taken a solid step.

The development of the equipment is supported by the National Key R&D Program "Renewable Energy and Hydrogen Energy Technology" key special project "Liquid Hydrogen Production, Storage, Transportation and Filling Key Equipment and Safety Research", which is led by Beijing Zhongke Fuhai Cryogenic Science and Technology, and Xie Xiujuan, a researcher at the Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is the project leader.

In the future, hydrogen production from renewable energy is expected to become mainstream

The development path of the domestic hydrogen energy system is to achieve a green, economical, efficient and convenient hydrogen energy system, and will gradually make breakthroughs in the production, storage, transportation and processing of hydrogen in the future. In the long run, with the expansion of hydrogen demand, distributed hydrogen production and hydrogen refueling integrated stations combined with renewable energy, cost-effective centralized hydrogen production, liquid hydrogen and other parallel storage and transportation paths will be the main development direction.

From the perspective of hydrogen supply structure trend, according to the China Hydrogen Energy Alliance, it is expected that in 2030, coal-to-hydrogen with CCS technology, renewable energy water electrolysis hydrogen production will become the main body of effective hydrogen supply, and renewable energy electrolysis hydrogen production will account for more than 10%;By 2050, China's energy structure will shift from traditional fossil energy to renewable energy, renewable energy water electrolysis hydrogen production will become the main body of effective hydrogen supply, coal hydrogen production with CCS technology, biological hydrogen production and solar photocatalytic water splitting hydrogen production and other technologies will become an effective supplement, and the proportion of renewable energy electrolysis hydrogen supply will increase to about 70%.
