Large-scale green hydrogen projects present China’s state-owned enterprises with a chance to advance the green economy by facilitating the production of electrolyzers upstream, and optimizing the use of other renewable energy sources.
The system produces 455.1 kg/h of hydrogen, a high rate. The area and dimensions of the heliostat mirror, the kind of working fluid, and the heliostats' efficiency are among the examined problem parameters of the solar energy system.
Yet most of China’s hydrogen output is powered by burning coal and natural gas, a process that emits carbon dioxide, yielding so-called “gray hydrogen.” The race is on to produce “green hydrogen” by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen using an electrochemical cell called an electrolyzer.
