Doosan Enerbility uses Jeju wind energy to produce green hydrogen in Korea

October 26, 2023 |

In the UK, Energy Global reported that Doosan Enerbility has commenced commercial operation of the Jeju green hydrogen production plant, which is powered using wind energy.

According to the report, the 3.3 MW Jeju green hydrogen production plant is the largest green hydrogen plant in Korea with participation from nine companies and institutions, including Doosan Enerbility, and Jeju Energy Corporation acting as the prime contractor. Doosan Enerbility carried out the integrated design and supervision of the plant and developed the lifecycle operation system to efficiently manage the hydrogen production, storage and utilization processes. Furthermore, the design, manufacturing and commissioning of a 300 kW water electrolysis system were also carried out via collaboration with Korean local partner companies.

The Jeju green hydrogen production plant will be using the surplus electricity from Jeju’s Haengwon wind farm to produce 240 kg/d of green hydrogen and 80 tpy by running a four-hour daily operation. Jeju City supplied the green hydrogen to the Hamdeok hydrogen fuelling station, which is currently being used to test run three hydrogen buses and plans are in place to expand this to nine hydrogen buses in the future, the report added.
