On April 14, a bus in Qingdao West Coast New District stopped at Qingdao Meijin Qiaotoubao Hydrogen Refueling Station. The reporter saw on the hydrogenation machine equipment that the equipment automatically stopped when the pressure of the hydrogenation machine reached a certain value, and the entire hydrogenation process took 18 minutes.
A few months ago, Qingdao’s first hydrogen energy bus demonstration operation line was opened, and the first batch of 50 hydrogen energy buses was put into operation in the West Coast New Area; at the same time, Qingdao’s first hydrogen refueling station was put into use, marking the rapid progress of Qingdao’s hydrogen energy industry. development stage.
In Qingdao Meijin New Energy Commercial Vehicle Manufacturing Center, not far from the hydrogen refueling station, workers are busy. "Leveraging on the advantages of the entire hydrogen energy industry chain that Meijin has accumulated, we will maximize our leading role, gather Qingdao's industrial strength, and initially build a hydrogen energy ecological chain." Yang Dongqing, assistant general manager of Meijin New Energy Automobile Manufacturing Company Tell reporters.
As hydrogen fuel cell vehicles accelerate the production, sales and put into operation, Qingdao West Coast New Area reinforces the chain around the four links of "production, storage and transportation, refueling, and application", and accelerates the creation of a hydrogen energy industry chain.
"The by-products of hydrogen by Gulf Chemicals and Qingdao Refining & Chemicals in our park are sufficient, and the annual by-products of hydrogen can reach 3.13 billion cubic meters after all the projects under construction reach full capacity." Xue Hongfu, director of the Planning and Construction Department of Dongjiakou Economic Zone, Qingdao West Coast New District, reporter According to the introduction, the West Coast New District is planning to build hydrogen energy towns and industrial parks to create a hydrogen industry cluster.
The development of the hydrogen energy industry requires a rich scene for the development of the hydrogen energy industry. Qingdao Port, Shandong Port, which aims to build a "China Hydrogen Port", has opened up a path for the application of hydrogen energy. In November 2019, the second phase of the fully automated terminal of Shandong Port Qingdao Port was put into operation in Qingdao West Coast New District. The second phase of the automated terminal uses independent research and development of hydrogen fuel cell stacks to provide power for automated rail cranes, and also significantly improves power generation efficiency.
At present, Qingdao West Coast New District has established a special class for new energy industry, formulated a new energy industry promotion work plan, and the industrial scale and application scale have grown steadily. Coupled with a diversified industrial structure and a complete industrial chain, the hydrogen energy industry in Qingdao West Coast New Area is accelerating its development from a new starting point.
