SANY delivers hydrogen refuelling project to Australia

On 20 May 2025, SANY officially delivered the custom-developed 200 Nm³/h skid-mounted hydrogen producing and refuelling equipment to the customer, representing a major step toward internationalising its green energy offerings.

The project utilises flexible electrolysis hydrogen production technology, complemented by a comprehensive control system to ensure stable and efficient operation. Featuring dual-stage supercharging and hydrogen storage at 50 MPa and 90 MPa, the single-unit system can simultaneously meet hydrogen refuelling needs for both 35 MPa commercial vehicles and 70 MPa passenger vehicles. This means that whether for cargo transport or daily travel, vehicles can be refuelled quickly and safely at this integrated station.

To ensure the smooth entry into the Australian market, the project strictly follows the market standard in production and has been fully certified by Bureau Veritas (BV) and TÜV SÜD:

• AS 3000 electrical safety certification: meets the highest Australian standard – Class 2.
• ASME/AS1200 dual certification: pressure vessels are certified for both US and Australian standards with the ASME U3 stamp. A fatigue life exceeds 20 000 cycles.
• SAE J2601 hydrogen refuelling protocol test: refuelling protocol meets international filling standards, enabling 70 MPa passenger vehicle refuelling within 3 minutes.

SANY adopts a forward development process based on design fundamentals. During development, the project team conducted thorough risk evaluations and controls of both the PEM hydrogen production and purification system and the high-pressure hydrogen refuelling system, including hazard identification, hazard and operability study, safety integrity level, and layer of protection analysis.

These analytical approaches enable early risk identification, laying the groundwork for safe, intelligent, and resilient hydrogen solutions.

Through advanced technology, strict safety standards, and global collaboration, SANY’s success in Australia marks a key step in sustainable development. SANY has been focusing on clean energy, advancing in wind, solar, hydrogen, energy storage, and microgrid technologies. “SANY is accelerating its transition toward decarbonisation and green growth, contributing a green force to the industry,” said Xiang Wenbo, Chairman of SANY Heavy Industry.
