Hydrogen energy is a kind of secondary energy with abundant sources, green and low carbon, and wide application. It is of great significance to build a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient energy system and achieve the goal of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality.

In recent years, my country's hydrogen energy industry infrastructure has developed rapidly, but compared with the international advanced level, there is still a certain gap.

Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration jointly issued the "Medium and Long-Term Plan for the Development of Hydrogen Energy Industry (2021-2035)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan"), proposing the goals of each stage of the development of the hydrogen energy industry: by 2025, basically grasp the Core technology and manufacturing process, the number of fuel cell vehicles is about 50,000, and a number of hydrogen refueling stations are deployed and constructed. The hydrogen production from renewable energy reaches 100,000-200,000 tons/year, and the carbon dioxide emission reduction is 1-2 million tons/year. . By 2030, a relatively complete hydrogen energy industry technology innovation system, clean energy hydrogen production and supply system will be formed, which will strongly support the realization of the carbon peaking goal. By 2035, a diversified application ecology of hydrogen energy will be formed, and the proportion of hydrogen production from renewable energy in terminal energy consumption will increase significantly.

Strong support for the "two-carbon" goal

On March 23, Wang Xiang, deputy director of the high-tech department of the National Development and Reform Commission, said at a special press conference that the energy attributes of hydrogen will be an integral part of the future national energy system. It is necessary to give full play to the clean and low-carbon characteristics of hydrogen energy to promote transportation. , industrial and other energy-consuming terminals and high-energy-consuming, high-emission industries green and low-carbon transformation. At the same time, hydrogen energy is the key direction of my country's strategic emerging industries, and it is a new growth point for building a green and low-carbon industrial system and creating industrial transformation and upgrading.

Wang Xiang introduced that the "Planning" is one of the "N" of the "1+N" policy system of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality. The carbon peak and the carbon neutrality goal have provided strong support.

On the energy supply side, "hydrogen energy is similar to electric energy. In the long run, it will become an important secondary energy source in the future clean energy system." Wang Xiang said, "Hydrogen energy has high energy density and simple storage method. It is a large-scale, long-term energy source. It is an ideal choice for energy storage. Through the integrated development of 'wind-solar hydrogen storage', it provides solutions for the large-scale consumption of renewable energy. With the development of hydrogen energy utilization technologies such as fuel cells, hydrogen energy-thermal energy-electricity will be realized. Flexible transformation."

On the energy consumption side, hydrogen energy is an important carrier for energy-using terminals to achieve green and low-carbon transformation and development. Wang Xiang revealed that it will strengthen control from the source of production, strictly limit the production of hydrogen from fossil energy, and encourage the development of hydrogen production from renewable energy. On the other hand, using hydrogen energy as a high-quality heat source to directly supply energy and reduce the energy supply of fossil energy in the industrial field can directly promote the green and low-carbon transformation of energy consumption.

Priority to safety in industrial development

The safety of hydrogen energy has always been a concern. In this regard, Liu Yafang, deputy director of the Science and Technology Department of the National Energy Administration, pointed out that safety should be regarded as the basis and inherent requirement for the development of the hydrogen energy industry, and a sound hydrogen energy safety supervision system and standard specifications should be established, aiming at hydrogen energy production, storage, transportation, processing, and processing. Pay attention to and apply the whole industry chain, strengthen the prevention and control of major safety risks, and improve the safety management level of the whole process.

Liu Yafang also proposed that on the premise of safety and controllability, we should strengthen technological innovations related to hydrogen safety, actively promote innovations in technologies, materials, and processes, and support the exploration and practice of various storage and transportation methods; Effectively deal with various safety risks of hydrogen energy.

"The National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration will jointly improve the safety and economy of the whole process of hydrogen energy, gradually reduce the cost of hydrogen energy use, and help the healthy and sustainable development of the hydrogen energy industry." Liu Yafang said.

It is strictly forbidden to blindly follow the trend

China Hydrogen Energy Alliance predicts that by 2025, the output value of my country's hydrogen energy industry will reach 1 trillion yuan; by 2030, the number of hydrogen refueling stations in my country will exceed 1,500; by 2050, the demand for hydrogen will be close to 60 million tons, and hydrogen energy It accounts for more than 10% of my country's terminal energy system, and the annual output value of the industrial chain reaches 12 trillion yuan.

In such a trillion-level "blue ocean", how to avoid rush and disorderly competition?

In this regard, Wang Xiang said that the "Planning" takes "innovative guidance, self-reliance, self-improvement, prudent application, and demonstration first" as the basic principle, and it is strictly forbidden to ignore the local reality, blindly follow the trend, and rush up to prevent low-level duplication of construction. Waste of infrastructure and resources.

Wang Xiang reminded that all localities should comprehensively consider the hydrogen energy supply capacity, industrial foundation and market space in the region, and on the basis of scientific demonstration, rationally deploy hydrogen energy preparation, storage and transportation, filling, application and other related projects in the industry chain, and be cautious. Proceed with project construction. Strictly implement project approval procedures, strictly implement energy consumption control responsibilities and ecological and environmental protection requirements, and strictly implement project construction and operation standards. It is strictly forbidden to "stake the horse" in the name of building a hydrogen energy project.

"It is hoped that the relevant parties will correctly understand their own advantages and shortcomings, adopt measures according to local conditions and circumstances, and actively and orderly develop hydrogen energy." Wang Xiang said.
