A new type of hydrogen storage equipment, in the hydrogen-charged state, is being exported from the Waigaoqiao Port Area in Shanghai.
On March 11, a large solid-state hydrogen storage device that had completed hydrogen filling operations was successfully shipped from the Waigaoqiao Port area in Shanghai. This marks the first time China has achieved maritime export transportation of large solid-state hydrogen storage equipment in a hydrogen-filled state, signifying a new breakthrough in China's independently developed solid-state hydrogen storage technology in the field of hydrogen energy storage and transportation.
A relevant official from the Shanghai Maritime Bureau introduced that the magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage equipment being shipped is destined for Malaysia and is part of a formal commercial order from an overseas customer. It will subsequently be used in local hydrogen energy application projects. According to preliminary estimates by the company, the hydrogen transportation scale for the related project this year is approximately 500 tons.
Hydrogen energy is considered an important component of the future energy system. For a long time, large-scale, long-distance transportation of hydrogen energy has faced significant challenges due to factors such as storage and transportation costs, safety, and efficiency. Traditional hydrogen storage and transportation often rely on cryogenic liquefaction or high-pressure compression methods, which are not only costly but also have extremely stringent safety technical requirements. The magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage equipment being shipped this time uses China's independently developed magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage materials and hydrogen absorption and release control technology, allowing hydrogen storage and transportation under normal temperature and pressure conditions. It has a single tank hydrogen storage capacity of 1 ton, a cycle life exceeding 3000 times, and offers high safety and storage and transportation efficiency.
