On August 14, 2020, Guangdong Neng Chuang Technology Co., Ltd. held a media meeting on the vehicle methanol water reforming hydrogen production system. Tong Chengzhi, director of Jilin Provincial Office in Guangzhou, Yan Changfeng, researcher of Guangzhou Energy Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Wang Chao, Associate professor of Guangdong University of Technology attended the conference. Gao Jiming, managing director of Guangdong Nengchuang Technology Co., LTD., said that with the assistance and promotion of relevant departments such as the Tianhe District government and the Smart City Park, Guangdong Nengchuang has achieved the promotion and commercial application of hydrogen energy technology in many fields such as communication and security. After years of unremitting efforts by all my colleagues in the company, we finally successfully developed this set of vehicle-mounted methanol reforming hydrogen production system, which also marks a new breakthrough in China's heavy-duty vehicle-mounted hydrogen energy technology.

In the next technical introduction, the technical staff of Guangdong Neng Chuang Technology Co., Ltd. proudly introduced: "This heavy truck has no noise, no large hydrogen storage tank, and a longer driving range." This means that the vehicle methanol reforming hydrogen production system independently developed by Nengchuang has achieved a complete success in the test phase, and the landing of the results indicates that the integration of "methanol reforming hydrogen production technology" and "fuel cell power generation technology" as the power drive unit technology of heavy trucks has achieved an important breakthrough.

In recent years, with the increasingly serious situation of environmental pollution and energy resource shortage in China, the development of clean energy represented by hydrogen energy is a national energy strategy to achieve green, environmental protection and sustainable development. Among them, the control of vehicle exhaust pollution emissions and vehicle consumption of fossil energy is closely related to our lives. Under the strong support of national policies, major car companies have increased research and development efforts to develop new energy vehicles suitable for China's national conditions. Hydrogen fuel cell vehicle (HFCV) has become the most promising solution in the field of new energy vehicles due to its advantages of high energy conversion efficiency, long driving range and environmental friendliness. At present, most technical solutions are to carry high-pressure hydrogen storage tanks for hydrogen supply, and the main problem brought by this technical route is the safety problem of carrying high-pressure hydrogen storage tanks (35-70Mpa) in moving vehicles, and its huge volume also reduces the effective cargo storage space of logistics vehicles.

A series of problems caused by high pressure hydrogen storage can be solved by using vehicle-mounted methanol reforming hydrogen production system. Methanol is a kind of liquid hydrogen-rich raw material with a wide range of sources. The cost of hydrogen production through methanol water reforming can be reduced to 0.8-1.5 yuan /Nm3, which is much lower than other fossil fuel hydrogen production and electrolytic hydrogen production technologies. Methanol is a bulk chemical with abundant production in China. Its industrial system is complete, mature, low storage and transportation cost, good safety, and it is an ideal hydrogen carrier at present.

With its unique strategic vision, relying on the technical accumulation and experience of the team over the years, Guangdong Neng Chuang Technology Co., Ltd. accurately grasped this technical idea, integrated the "methanol reforming hydrogen production technology" and "fuel cell power generation technology", and responded to the needs of different scenarios including mobile communication base station power supply, emergency vehicles, data center power backup, military field, etc. Research and development and manufacture of methanol reforming hydrogen power generation equipment, breaking through the "production, storage, transportation, charging" and other safety technical bottlenecks of hydrogen.

In order to realize the application of methanol reforming to produce hydrogen power generation in logistics transportation heavy trucks, Guangdong Neng Chuang Technology Co., Ltd. developed this vehicle methanol reforming system. After many tests, the system test results have reached a number of domestic leading and international first-class technical indicators:

(1) Hydrogen production increased to 650L/min-1200L/min;

(2) The startup and shutdown time is greatly reduced to 30 minutes, and the cooling time is reduced to 1 hour;

(3) The use pressure of hydrogen is reduced to 0.1MPa to enhance the safety of hydrogen use;

(4) In the case of the same power generation, the volume of the hydrogen production machine is equivalent to one-third of the volume of the hydrogen tank;

(5) The cost of hydrogen production machine is only about one-third of the use of pure hydrogen.

For the landing of the methanol reforming hydrogen fuel cell heavy truck project, Guangdong NENG Chuang Technology will further improve the optimization of methanol reforming hydrogen production and hydrogen power generation powertrain, to achieve a smaller device volume and further vehicle mileage; And to start the construction of fully automated production lines and methanol reforming hydrogen fuel cell heavy truck mass production, is expected in the next three years the total value of production will reach 30 billion, strive to be at the forefront of hydrogen energy research and development and industrialization.
