A few days ago, Sinopec Maoming Petrochemical's hydrogen fuel cell hydrogen supply center project officially started construction in Maoming, Guangdong. The total investment of the project is 62.44 million yuan. After it is completed and put into production, it will meet the hydrogen demand in western Guangdong, improve the hydrogen production and supply capacity in western Guangdong, and help the rapid development of Guangdong's hydrogen energy industry.
According to the relevant person in charge of Sinopec, the Maoming Petrochemical hydrogen fuel cell hydrogen supply center project includes a new hydrogen purification device with a design scale of 3,000 standard cubic meters per hour, and a hydrogen refueling station with a hydrogen supply capacity of 500 kg/h. Sinopec's independent intellectual property technology construction has the advantages of small area and low energy consumption. It is expected to be completed and put into operation in the first quarter of next year.
At present, Sinopec is accelerating the establishment of a "one base, two wings and three new" industrial structure, speeding up the establishment of a world-leading clean energy chemical company, and comprehensively promoting the construction of the entire hydrogen energy industry chain. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, it is planned to build 1,000 hydrogen refueling stations. The number of newly developed hydrogen refueling stations this year will reach 100.
According to data provided by Sinopec, the company's current annual hydrogen production capacity exceeds 3.9 million tons, accounting for about 11% of the country's hydrogen production. Sinopec has built 6 sets of hydrogen purification production plants in Yanshan Petrochemical, Guangzhou Petrochemical, Hainan Refining & Chemical, Gaoqiao Petrochemical, Zhenhai Refining & Chemical, Qingdao Refining & Chemical and other enterprises, and hydrogen refueling stations in 14 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities including Guangdong and Shanghai. 22 seats.
A hydrogen refueling station is a gas station that pressurizes hydrogen from different sources through compressors and stores it in a high-pressure tank in the station, and then refills hydrogen fuel cell vehicles with hydrogen through a gas dispenser. my country's energy consumption is at the forefront of the world. Hydrogen energy is a clean, efficient, and sustainable secondary energy source. In recent years, with the acceleration of energy conversion, the industrial chain layout of hydrogen refueling stations has gradually improved. At the same time, in the context of continued favorable national policies, the development of my country's hydrogen fuel cell industry has accelerated. As an important infrastructure for the industrialization and commercialization of hydrogen fuel cells, the construction speed of hydrogen refueling stations has also been accelerating.
Lu Chenyu, deputy secretary-general of the National Fuel Cell and Flow Battery Standards Committee, said that by the end of 2020, the total number of hydrogen refueling stations in my country was 118, and the number in the first half of this year was about 156. In addition, 150-160 hydrogen refueling stations are under construction. Or planning. Sinopec has proposed to build more than 1,000 hydrogen refueling stations during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. According to such a development model, it is expected that my country’s hydrogen refueling stations will exceed 200 in 2021.
According to analysis by industry insiders, hydrogen fuel electric vehicles have outstanding advantages, and the future industry has a broad space for development. Hydrogen refueling stations are important facilities to realize the industrial development of hydrogen fuel electric vehicles. With the continuous development of the hydrogen fuel electric vehicle industry and the continuous favorable national policies, my country will The hydrogen refueling station industry will also show a good development trend.
