Be the first to react!

With 400 MW of solar capacity, green hydrogen production, and electrochemical storage, the completed installation in Rudong brings together different technologies to expand the use of renewable energy, reduce solar generation fluctuations, and test an integrated model aimed at energy stability.

China has completed in Rudong its largest offshore integrated solar energy, green hydrogen, and storage project, with 400 MW of solar capacity focusing on making renewable energy more stable.

Offshore project integrates renewable technologies

Funded by CHN Energy Guohua Energy Investment Co., the venture is described as China’s largest offshore solar demonstration project. The structure combines solar panels, a 220-kilovolt station, hydrogen production, and electrochemical storage.

The installation is presented as the first in the country to bring together power generation, hydrogen production, storage, full energy utilization, and coastal ecological management in a single venture.

Green hydrogen reinforces the use of solar energy

The hydrogen production station has the capacity to generate 1,500 standard cubic meters per hour. The process uses solar electricity to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen, storing renewable energy.

The solar plant reached full grid connection capacity on April 29, 2025. When the system is operational, the storage can provide 120,000 kilowatt-hours during daily peak hours.

The hydrogen unit is expected to produce up to 180 tons of green hydrogen per year. The fuel can serve nearby industries, including chemical manufacturing and transportation.

The facilities are expected to operate as a closed-loop system, bringing together generation, storage, use, and backup in the same structure.

Stability is the central challenge of renewables

Lin Boqiang, from Xiamen University, states that hydrogen and storage help to address the volatility of solar energy.

For him, the completion of the project indicates progress in multi-energy complementarity in China, focusing on conversion efficiency, source integration, and system stability.

The enterprise advances as China expands renewable hydrogen. Completed and ongoing projects totaled more than 1 million tons annually by the end of March, with more than 250,000 tons operational.

What do you think of this model that combines solar, batteries, and hydrogen in a single offshore project? Comment on whether such systems can help coastal countries make clean energy more reliable, more useful for industry, and less dependent on a single source.
