Risen Energy modules selected for substantial solar-hydrogen complex in China
- China's Risen Energy Co Ltd (SHE:300118) stated on Thursday it will provide solar (PV) modules for a 361-MW solar park that will be powering a 20,000-tonne green hydrogen production facility in China.
The PV-based hydrogen complicated, set to end up being the biggest one worldwide, is be possessed by China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (HKG:0386), much better known as Sinopec. Construction of the pilot project in Kuqa County, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, begun in November 2021.
With a winning bid to equip the PV component of the scheme, Risen Energy said it will supply 210mm 650W+ Titan modules. The Chinese firm was chosen from a checklist of 4 manufacturers offering PV modules of at the very least 650 MW each.
The PV-powered green hydrogen production park is anticipated to be finished in June 2023. Its output will be provided to Sinopec Tahe Refining & Chemical so it might change the existing natural gas and fossil energy utilized in hydrogen manufacturing. Sinopec's strategy likewise includes a round hydrogen tank with the capacity to store 210,000 standard cubic metres as well as hydrogen transmission pipes with a capacity of 28,000 cubic metres per hour.
Risen Energy noted it intends to more work together with Sinopec to check out new approaches to PV-based hydrogen manufacturing.
