A hydrogen charging station was installed in Nam-gu, Ulsan, to supply hydrogen through pipelines. Related infrastructure is being built in Ulsan, which aims to become a “mecca city for the hydrogen economy”.
The city of Ulsan announced on the 30th that it had completed the ‘Joint Hydrogen Charging Station’ in the area around 101 Shinhwa-ro, Nam-gu. Construction of this charging station, which began in February last year, is the first station in the country to supply hydrogen through pipelines. The filling scale per hour is 55 kg. It has the facility’s capacity to load more than 130 units per day. Existing charging stations could charge about 50 units a day.
The city of Ulsan explained that the method of supplying hydrogen through supply pipes in the city center is the third in the world after Japan and the United States. Compared with supplying hydrogen as a vehicle (tube trailer), it is possible to transfer large amounts of water, which not only increases the processing capacity of the charging station, but also reduces transportation costs and prevents accidents caused By large vehicles.
The city of Ulsan plans to build a north-south axis from the Onsan National Industrial Complex through Taehwagang Station to the Gyeongju border in Gyeongsangbuk-do to supply hydrogen to transportation, industrial and residential complexes, and expand the network. of hydrogen pipelines to the western and eastern regions.
An information and communication technology (ICT) based sensor was applied to the hydrogen charging station and the top of the hydrogen pipeline. It has built a security management system that citizens can trust and use through real-time monitoring via fiber optics and sensors.
The hydrogen charging station at Deokha’s public garage, which was completed together on this day, is a bus-only charging station. Hydrogen buses require more than five times more hydrogen than hydrogen cars and have a long wait time after charging. Because of this, the inconvenience of hydrogen passenger car operators that occurred when loading hydrogen buses at hydrogen charging stations in general is expected to be reduced. The city hopes it will help expand the supply of various types of hydrogen mobility by processing even large commercial vehicles. There are 8 hydrogen electric vehicle charging stations in Ulsan. The city of Ulsan plans to build four additional charging stations in the western, northern, eastern and southern regions by next year to increase accessibility throughout Ulsan. The city plans to build a hydrogen mega station that can charge various hydrogen vehicles such as large buses, hydrogen trucks, construction equipment and hydrogen trams around Taehwagang station after next year.
Ulsan Mayor Song Chul-ho said: “We plan to showcase the best hydrogen city in the world in 2030 by first expanding the hydrogen pipeline, building a hydrogen housing model and applying a precision monitoring security management system. “.
