No American has ever even imagined - let alone seen - an electrolyzer this big
CRRC Zhuzhou Institute in China Successfully Launched 2000 Nm³/h Electrolyzer, Taken a Leap Forward in Hydrogen Energy Technology
Zhuzhou, Hunan Province, China, October 12, 2024: CRRC Zhuzhou Institute successfully launched the independently developed 2000 Nm³/h electrolyzer, and unveiled a large-scale flexible green hydrogen production equipment solution, which marks a significant milestone in the company's hydrogen energy industry and injects new vitality into the country’s clean energy development and the realization of the "Dual -Carbon" goals. Mr. Li Donglin, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the company, and Mr. Mei Wenqing, Deputy General Manager, attended the launch ceremony.
The electrolyzer incorporates multiple advanced technologies, boasting industry-leading high current density, ultra-low energy consumption, stable parallel operation, and full automation.
With a maximum current density of 4000 A/m², the electrolyzer achieves a 40% improvement over traditional electrolyzers;
With a DC energy consumption of ≤ 4.3 kWh/Nm³, meeting the national Tier 1 energy efficiency standard;
Featuring a self-developed intelligent control system, the green hydrogen production system can flexibly adjust its output within a range of 25%-110% to accommodate fluctuating renewable energy conditions;
Offering a solution for minimally or unmanned hydrogen production, the electrolyzer features a real-time monitoring system for cell voltage and temperature, as well as an intelligent operation platform with one-button start/stop and fully automated operation.
The advantages of a 2000 Nm³/h electrolyzer for various applications
Compared to the industry-standard 1000 Nm³/h electrolyzer, a 2000 Nm³/h electrolyzer can significantly reduce project costs for a 1GW green hydrogen production plant. By saving over 21,000 square meters of land (equivalent to three football fields), construction costs are reduced by more than 30%. Additionally, the electrolyzer equipment costs are approximately 20% lower, and reduced piping further contributes to a more than 20% reduction in initial investment...more

Just concluded: The 8th International Hydrogen Energy & Fuel Cell Technology and Product Expo Foshan·China
Hydrogen technology innovation and industrialization, one of the important decarbonization technology routes, is accelerating under the background of “Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutralization”.
Foshan City Nanhai District Huanan New Energy Automobile Industry Promotion Center has held National Hydrogen Energy Week series activity since last six years, which make CHFE as one of the largest hydrogen and fuel cell events in China.
The 8th International Hydrogen Energy & Fuel Cell Technology and Product Expo is scheduled to take place from 18th to 20th October 2024 in Nanhai Qiaoshan Cultural Center, Foshan China, and will cover hydrogen energy infrastructure, fuel cells, core components and materials, fuel cell vehicle manufacturing, industrial cooperation, as well as hydrogen production, storage, transportation, hydrogen utilization, etc., which will provide hydrogen energy people with an annual event with more connotation, creativity, and high quality.
The exhibition area is estimated to exceed 20,000 square metres, with 300+ booths scheduled. It is projected that 300+ companies from around the world would attend the show, with over 10,000 professional attendees...more

OP
In other news, China risks exploding electrolyzers if they are powered by so called "renewable energy."

Green Hydrogen neither uses fossil fuels nor emits CO2 in its production or it's energy generation.
Think. Again.
