South Korea takes another step toward hydrogen economy with Hanwha plant

摘要

From setting up the biggest liquid hydrogen plant in the world to producing the carbon-free fuel as a byproduct, South Korea is fast implementing new technologies to expand the scope of hydrogen production as it bets on robust growth prospects. After recently unveiling plans to set up the world's largest liquid hydrogen plant, South Korea now has another first: starting commercial production at the world's first byproduct hydrogen-based fuel cell power plant. The projects form a part of the South Korean government's hydrogen blueprint that aims to sharply boost output of hydrogenpowered vehicles and electricity generation from hydrogen in an effort to use hydrogen as a major energy source for transportation and power generation.
