China – Hebei first 70 MPa hydrogen refueling stations put into operation.
China News Service, Zhangjiakou, (Pei Guorong) Hebei Province’s first 70 MPa hydrogen refueling station-Zhangjiakou Chongli Xiwanzi Hydrogen Refueling Station was officially put into operation on the 9th.
This hydrogen refueling station, which is only 15 kilometers away from the Zhangjiakou competition area of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, will meet the requirements of various hydrogen energy vehicles during the Winter Olympics and add “hydrogen power” to the “green transportation” of the Beijing Winter Olympics.
As the official partner of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics and the Winter Paralympics, on the same day, the “clean energy fuels the Winter Olympics” Sinopec Beijing Winter Olympics hydrogen energy service comprehensive launch ceremony was held in Beijing, and officially Invest in 4 hydrogen refueling stations that will serve the Winter Olympics, namely, Beijing Qingyuan Street Hydrogen Refueling Station, Beijing Wangquanying Hydrogen Refueling Station, Beijing Xinglong Oil and Hydrogen Co-construction Station, and Hebei Chongli Xiwanzi Hydrogen Refueling Station, jointly undertaking the Beijing Winter Olympics Hydrogen energy guarantees work.
On the same day, as the staff at the Xiwanzi Hydrogen Refueling Station in Chongli, Hebei inserted the hydrogen refueling gun into the vehicle’s hydrogen refueling port, within 6 minutes, a modernized car with the words “Meet in Beijing” was printed. Hydrogen energy buses quickly refill their “energy”.
“At most 5 vehicles can be hydrogenated at the same time, with 35 MPa and 70 MPa hydrogen refueling machines available, which can charge various hydrogen energy vehicles during the Winter Olympics.” According to Sinopec Zhang Jianguang, deputy manager of the new business management department of Hebei Petroleum Company, introduced that the hydrogen refueling station to be put into operation is designed to refuel 1,000 kilograms of hydrogen per day.
It mainly serves the surrounding bus lines that use hydrogen fuel, as well as logistics light trucks, heavy trucks, Toyota Kosda, MIRAI Waiting for hydrogen energy vehicles, undertake the task of ensuring the supply of hydrogen energy for transportation vehicles in the core area of the Winter Olympics.
“The energy density of hydrogen is 3 times that of gasoline and 130 times that of lithium batteries. It has the advantages of high calorific value, large energy, storable, renewable, and zero pollution.”
Sinopec Hebei Zhangjiakou Petroleum Branch Manager Shi Minghui said that hydrogen is a clean energy, and the development of hydrogen energy vehicles is one of the important ways to utilize hydrogen energy and realize low-carbon green transportation.
Bai Jing, deputy secretary-general of Zhangjiakou Municipal Government and director of the Municipal Development and Reform Commission, stated that Zhangjiakou, as an important host city for the Beijing Winter Olympics snow project, guarantees the green transportation of the Winter Olympics is to implement the concept of “green Olympics” Important move.
The investment of the Chongli Xiwanzi Hydrogen Refueling Station can not only provide better clean energy services for the Winter Olympics, but also has positive significance for accelerating the improvement of the hydrogen energy supply guarantee system in Zhangjiakou and promoting the optimized layout of the hydrogen energy industry chain.
In July this year, the Hebei Provincial Development and Reform Commission issued the “Fourteenth Five-Year Plan for the Development of the Hydrogen Energy Industry in Hebei Province” (referred to as the “Plan”), which aims to promote a clean energy structure during the “14th Five-Year Plan” period of the province Low-carbon green transformation, accelerate the conversion of new and old kinetic energy, and help achieve the goal of “carbon peak in 2030 and carbon neutral by 2060”.
According to the requirements of the “Plan”, Hebei will build 100 hydrogen refueling stations and 10,000 fuel cell vehicles by 2025.
In this regard, Xin Yong, director of the Propaganda Department of the Party Committee of Sinopec Hebei Petroleum Branch, said that during the “14th Five-Year Plan” period, the company will plan to add hydrogen refueling functions to existing stations or build new oil-hydrogen combined stations, etc.
To achieve the goal of building 50 hydrogen refueling stations across the province, and strive to achieve the goal of 100, accelerate the transformation from a refined oil supplier to an integrated energy service provider, and “run-up” for the green reform of Hebei’s energy structure.
