China's Renewable Energy-Based Hydrogen Production Accelerates Large-Scale Development

[SMM Hydrogen Energy News: National Energy Administration: China's Renewable Energy Hydrogen Production Accelerating Toward Large-Scale Development] On April 27, the National Energy Administration released Q1 energy data, indicating that China's renewable energy hydrogen production entered a new stage of large-scale development. As of March month-end, nationwide completed and under-construction green hydrogen capacity exceeded 1 million mt/year, of which operational capacity exceeded 250,000 mt/year, doubling YoY, with under-construction capacity exceeding 900,000 mt/year. Northeast and North China were core production regions, with Jilin and Inner Mongolia leading the way. Wind and solar power-hydrogen coupling and integrated green hydrogen-ammonia-methanol models accelerated implementation. Going forward, plans will be developed for the "15th Five-Year Plan" hydrogen energy development, with policy frameworks to be improved to drive high-quality industrial development.
