POWERCHINA launches green hydrogen project

Central Asia's first industrial-scale green hydrogen project in the region has commenced trial operations in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, with the successful production of high-purity hydrogen. This landmark project represents a crucial component of Uzbekistan's Green Energy Strategy. The core hydrogen production facility is located at the MAXAM Chemical Plant in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan. It adopts ALK electrolysis technology, equipped with 4 x 1000 Nm³/h electrolyser systems, total capacity is 20 MW. The facility can produce 3150 tpy of green hydrogen, reducing approximately 30 000 tpy of carbon dioxide emissions compared to the previous grey hydrogen production mode. The project represents a key milestone in advancing green, low-carbon energy transformation across Central Asia and beyond.

Mohammad Abunayyan, Chairman of ACWA Power, commented that the launch of the project marks a significant milestone for the industry. He praised the project's progress, highlighting its demonstration of international cooperation and the shared commitment to advancing clean energy. By overcoming numerous challenges, the project also provides valuable experience for the global development of green hydrogen. As the world confronts unprecedented environmental challenges, POWERCHINA remains committed to helping accelerate the global transition to clean energy with tangible, scalable results.
