Dongyue Future Hydrogen Energy Company and Ballard Company sign strategic cooperation agreement.
People’s Network Jinan held in Shanghai, the 6th International Hydrogen Energy and Fuel Cell Automotive Conference, Shandong Dongyue Future Hydrogen Energy Materials Co., Ltd. and Ballard Power Systems Co., Ltd. signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement, which is following the successful cooperation with AFCC (Mercedes-Benz-Ford Proton Membrane Fuel Cell Reactor Research and Development Company) and achieved mutually satisfactory results, Dongyue Group once again with the most authoritative international proton membrane fuel cell research and development company strategic cooperation.
It is of great significance to promote the development of proton membrane fuel cell industry in China and the world, and will also become a major event in the history of proton membrane fuel cell development in the world. According to the agreement, the two sides will work closely together in the development, evaluation and application of proton membranes for hydrogen fuel cells in the future.
The signing ceremony was attended by Zhang Heng, Chairman and General Manager of Hydrogen Energy, and Randy MacEwen, President and CEO of Ballard.
Founded in 1983, Ballard is committed to proton membrane fuel cell technology research and development, is a global leader in proton membrane fuel cell industry, fuel cell industry pioneer, its technology and products in the global wide range of applications and commercialization.
In the past 40 years, Ballard’s continuous and focused research and development and innovation has solidly promoted the technological progress and application of proton membrane fuel cells in auto-power generation and other fields, and has made great contributions to the development of proton membrane fuel cells worldwide.
Recently, Ballard and Weichai Power jointly developed 120kW fuel cell engine power density of up to 4.0kW/L, mass power density of more than 560W/kg, the maximum efficiency of the system increased to more than 60%, life of more than 30000h, to achieve a fast low temperature start-up of -30 degrees C, can be used in road buses and sanitation, dump, traction and other medium and heavy truck scenes.
Dongyue Group was founded in 1987, is currently China’s fluorinated materials and fluorinated chemicals in the field of leadership. Starting from 2003 to start fuel cell proton membrane industry-wide research and development and construction, after 18 years of continuous research and development and continuous innovation, has been with europe and North America, many scientific research institutions and car companies fruitfully and extensively cooperate, forming a unique fuel cell proton membrane industry chain advantages in the world.
At present, Dongyue Group is stepping up efforts to build a new hydrogen energy industry chain, the development of high-end fluorine silicon materials.
Dongyue 1.5 million square meters of proton film first phase of the project and two-way stretch film intelligent production line and supporting materials production is normal, ion exchange resin expansion project is stepping up construction, is currently preparing to build a second proton membrane production line, as soon as possible to build the world’s largest proton membrane production base.
The signed cooperation intention with 50 domestic hydrogen fuel cell vehicles and their supporting enterprises. At the same time, accelerate the promotion of chlor-alkali ion film, aerospace perfluoropolye oil, power battery-grade, water treatment membrane-grade polyfluoroethylene and Teflon emulsion and other scientific research results to achieve large-scale production.
Dongyue Group and Ballard company tied the knot in 2004, the two sides have always maintained close exchanges and technical exchanges.
After the establishment of Dongyue Future Hydrogen Energy Company, Ballard Company carried out a systematic evaluation of Dongyue series of fuel cell proton membranes, and achieved satisfactory results, on the basis of which the two sides agreed to carry out further close cooperation, and strive to implement the China fuel cell vehicle demonstration and the world’s evolving fuel cell technology and industry to provide first-class innovative products and perfect services.
