Pilot demonstration program

China’s National Energy Administration published a plan for pilot initiatives across 11 areas of the hydrogen value chain targeting commercial deployment by June 2028. Each project should demonstrate technological progression, commercial potential, substantial carbon reduction benefits, and replicable frameworks. For hydrogen production, electrolyzers should be of at least 100 MW predominantly powered by paired renewable energy, with no more than 20% of renewable power fed into the grid. Minimum length for hydrogen pipelines is 100 km and minimum size for storage projects is 20000 Nm3. NEA focuses on uses for refining, coal-to-liquid replacement, power generation and long duration energy storage with at least 1000 tpa of use
