Yuchai Marine Power Unveils China's First Ammonia Dual-Fuel Low-Speed Engine

[SMM Hydrogen Energy News Brief: China's First Million-Cubic-Meter-Level Salt Cavern Hydrogen Storage Demonstration Project Put into Operation in Henan] On April 25, China's first million-cubic-meter-level salt cavern hydrogen storage demonstration project, led by the Wuhan Institute of Rock and Soil Mechanics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, was officially put into operation in Pingdingshan City, Henan Province. This project marked China's first hydrogen storage facility built in bedded salt rock formations, identifying the multi-scale migration patterns of hydrogen in ultra-low-permeability rock salt, overcoming the core technology of precise site and layer selection for salt cavern hydrogen storage, and effectively verifying the long-term sealing performance and engineering application feasibility of hydrogen storage in bedded salt rock.

[SMM Hydrogen Energy Brief: Two Group Standards for New Energy Hydrogen Production Officially Released and Implemented] It was learned on April 1 that two group standards in the field of new energy hydrogen production, led and compiled by the Xinjiang Design Branch of the Pipeline Design Institute and jointly co-compiled by 16 industry entities in China, had been officially approved, released, and implemented by the Standardization Working Committee of the China International Association for Promotion of Science and Technology. The two standards released are "Safety Technical Guidelines for Water Electrolysis Hydrogen Production Plants" and "Economic Operation Indicators and Calculation Methods for Water Electrolysis Hydrogen Production Plants," which will provide normative references for safe operations, economic operation, and indicator accounting in the water electrolysis hydrogen production industry.

[SMM Hydrogen Energy News: Hydrogenergy Won the Bid for State Grid Jiangxi Electric Power Research Institute PEM Pure Water Electrolysis Hydrogen Production Equipment Procurement Project] Recently, Hydrogenergy successfully won the bid for the PEM pure water electrolysis hydrogen production equipment procurement project of the Electric Power Research Institute of State Grid Jiangxi Electric Power Co., Ltd., responsible for equipment production, supply, transportation, and subsequent supporting services. The proton exchange membrane hydrogen production equipment won in this bid will be used to verify the response characteristics of PEM hydrogen production systems under green electricity fluctuation conditions, accumulating measured operational data for power grid flexible load regulation. As one of the earlier PEM hydrogen production research-type installations deployed in the Jiangxi power grid system, this project will also provide important technical selection references for the subsequent construction of regional hydrogen energy storage demonstration stations.
