A joint R&D team from Dongfang Electric Corporation and Academician Xie Heping's team has successfully completed over 1000 hours of continuous operation verification for a novel split-structure direct electrolysis hydrogen production system, capable of producing 110 Nm³/h of hydrogen without desalination. This milestone follows the development of a 10 Nm³/h prototype that passed 240 hours of testing in July 2024, and the completion of the 110 Nm³/h system in September 2024, which achieved its initial 240 hours of stable operation.

The system features a modular design for improved scalability and adaptability. This innovation aims to enhance the production of marine green hydrogen by bypassing traditional desalination processes, positioning Dongfang Electric to contribute significantly to the global energy transition.
