On December 6, 2023, the unveiling ceremony of Yaojing New Energy (Jilin) Co., Ltd.’s first 1,000 cubic meter alkaline water electrolyzer, as well as the inauguration ceremony of Taonan Huajing New Energy Co., Ltd., were successfully held in Taonan. It is understood that in August 2021, Taonan City, aiming to take advantage of its unique natural scenery resources, held several meetings and discussions with Yaojing Company, using sincerity to foster trust and commitment, as well as confidence to underpin its promises. It took only 40 days to complete the project related to signing contracts and establishing operations, setting a new record for the speed of attracting investment in Taonan. This project became a cornerstone for Taonan in building its \"1411\" industrial framework and developing an industry cluster for new energy equipment manufacturing. It also served as the starting point for Yaojing Company to expand its operations in Jilin, thus ushering in a new era of cooperation between the government and private enterprises. Yaojing New Energy (Jilin) Co., Ltd. is a technology-driven Sino-Japanese joint venture. Its core technical team comes from Professor Takanori Ichikawa’s research group at Hiroshima University in Japan – one of the pioneers in the field of hydrogen storage in Japan, as well as a leader in the fields of hydrogen and ammonia energy; this team consists of 50 experts and scholars. In recent years, the company has always adhered to the philosophy of \"putting end-users first, focusing on market demands, and being guided by practical results.\" It has continuously pursued technological innovations in areas such as the use of renewable energy for water electrolysis to produce hydrogen, as well as its storage, transportation, and application, making positive contributions to the development of the Northern Hydrogen Valley and the achievement of the **\"dual carbon\" goals**. The event began with the unveiling ceremony of the first 1,000 cubic meter alkaline water electrolyzer. This electrolyzer is the first of its kind in Jilin Province. The successful holding of this unveiling ceremony marks the official commissioning of the project. It is understood that the total investment in this project is 150 million yuan, and it covers an area of 47,000 square meters. The main products are hydrogen production equipment based on 1,000 cubic meters of alkaline electrolyzed water, along with supporting equipment such as gas separation devices and gas purification devices – all of which are part of the high-end equipment needed for hydrogen production. Once fully completed, it will be able to generate an annual output value of 700 million yuan and profits and taxes amounting to 15 million yuan. Its production capacity will rank among the highest in the country. This represents a significant breakthrough for our province in the field of equipment for producing hydrogen through electrolysis of renewable energy. It will not only contribute to the development of new energy sources in our city and throughout the province, but also provide strong impetus for high-quality economic development during the 14th Five-Year Plan period and beyond.
