On December 3, the CGN Gong’an County integrated demonstration project for green hydrogen, ammonia, and alcohol production with an annual capacity of 200,000 tons (with a phase 1 capacity of 100,000 tons per year) was approved for registration. Construction content and scale: The main components of the project include the gasification of biomass straws to produce methanol, the electrolysis of wind and solar green electricity for hydrogen production and storage, as well as biomass collection and storage stations and preprocessing stations. The project covers an area of about 500 mu, and the current phase involves the construction of a facility capable of producing 100,000 tons per year of synthetic green methanol. The project construction includes facilities related to the gasification of biomass straw pellets for methanol production, as well as pressure reduction stations, a hydrogen production plant with a capacity of 6,000 Nm³/h, wind and solar power sources, biomass collection, storage, and preprocessing stations, along with related supporting facilities. Project Code: 2512-421022-04-01-389611. Project Owner: CGN New Energy Gong’an County Co., Ltd. Total investment for the project (in ten thousand yuan): 200,000. Planned start date: June 2026. CGN New Energy Gong’an County Co., Ltd. was established in 2022; it is a member of China General Nuclear Group and is located in Jingzhou City, Hubei Province. The company is engaged in the production and supply of electricity and heat. The registered capital of the enterprise is 408.1 million RMB. On June 11, the registration details for a 23.7MW photovoltaic project that serves as a supporting facility for China General Nuclear Group’s Gong’an County green methanol integrated project (the first-phase off-grid hydrogen production project) were made public. Construction content and scale: This photovoltaic power plant is planned to install 50,008 N-type high-efficiency monocrystalline silicon bifacial modules with a standard power of 620 Wp. The installed capacity on the DC side is 31.005 MWp, while the installed capacity on the AC side is 23.7 MW; the capacity factor for this project is approximately 1.308. Photovoltaic power plants are off-grid systems; the electricity they generate is entirely used for the Green Methanol Integration Project in Gong’an County (the first-phase off-grid hydrogen production project), specifically for the water electrolysis hydrogen production system, and is not fed into the grid. Total project investment (10,000 yuan): 10,000. On June 11, the registration details for the 8.19MW/32.6MWh electrochemical energy storage project that supports China General Nuclear Group’s Gong’an County green methanol integrated project (Phase 1 off-grid hydrogen production project) were made public. Construction content and scale: This project includes the construction of an energy storage facility with a capacity of 8.19 MW/32.6 MWh, which will be connected to the 35 kV bus side of the hydrogen production station. The energy storage system consists of 2 5MWPCS step-up transformer prefabricated units, 4 5MWh battery prefabricated units, and 3 4.179MWh battery prefabricated units. A total of 2 sets of PCS step-up transformer prefabricated modules and 7 sets of battery prefabricated modules are provided. An energy storage system is used to ensure a stable power output for off-grid photovoltaic systems, with the stored electricity being utilized for water electrolysis to produce hydrogen.
