250,000 mt/year Green Methanol Project in Guazhou Kicks Off

[SMM Hydrogen Energy News Brief] On April 3, Guangdong Liquid Sunshine Green Energy Co., Ltd. officially signed a memorandum of cooperation in Hefei with Johnson Matthey, a global leader in sustainable technologies, and East China Engineering Science and Technology Co., Ltd. The three parties will jointly advance the implementation of the 150,000 mt biomass green methanol demonstration project invested and constructed by Sunshine Green Energy in Tiandong County, Guangxi. Jiang Xi, Executive President of Sunshine Green Energy, Zhong Ling, General Manager of Johnson Matthey China, and Meng Chenzhou, General Manager of East China Engineering Science and Technology, signed the agreement on behalf of their respective parties.

[SMM Hydrogen Energy News Brief] On April 9, the first AEM hydrogen production-magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage integrated system, independently developed by the Hydrogen Science Center of the School of Materials at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, was officially put into operation in Kazakhstan. The system combines two core technologies — efficient hydrogen production and safe hydrogen storage — achieving deep intelligent coupling of hydrogen production and storage. It employs non-precious metal, low-cost green electricity dynamic direct-connection methods for hydrogen production and directly delivers hydrogen at low pressure to the magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage module, eliminating the need for high-pressure compression and cryogenic liquefaction, thereby pioneering a new pathway for the large-scale application of green hydrogen.

[SMM Hydrogen Energy News] On April 10, Jixi City in Heilongjiang Province held a significant event — the groundbreaking ceremony and technical exchange conference for the 300,000 mt green hydrogen-methanol-aviation fuel-chemical co-production project, which took place in Jidong County, Jixi City. It is understood that the project is invested and constructed by Heilongjiang Jiayirongyuan Green Chemical Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Jiaze New Energy Co., Ltd., with a planned total investment of approximately 3.557 billion yuan. The core of the project lies in building an annual 300,000 mt green methanol production site and establishing a sustainable development system for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).
