“Green hydrogen” refers to the hydrogen obtained by electrolyzing water with renewable energy, which only produces water during combustion. Compared with gray hydrogen and blue hydrogen with coal and natural gas as raw materials, it is more low-carbon and environmentally friendly and plays an important role in the global energy transformation.
“The lighting of the ‘green hydrogen’ torch in this winter Olympic Games not only demonstrates the technical strength in the Shanxi Guoxin Energy Corporation Limited(600617) field to the world, but also creates the energy consumption history of the Winter Olympic torch.” The person in charge said.
The green hydrogen industry chain includes hydrogen production, storage and transportation, hydrogenation, hydrogen energy utilization and other links. According to the reporter, in view of the special requirements of this winter Olympic torch, Petrochina Company Limited(601857) all relevant departments, professional companies and relevant enterprises of the headquarters are integrated and linked.
