Proliferation of hydrogen charging stations in urban areas based on safety and trust

[투데이에너지 김병욱 기자] Environment Minister Han Jeong-ae visited the renovated Yangjae Hydrogen Charging Station on the 26th and held a demonstration event for free hydrogen vehicle charging with the first citizens to visit.

Yangjae Hydrogen Charging Station invested 3 billion won to increase hydrogen charging capacity about three times compared to the previous one and reopened it with the latest facilities. The free recharge event will run from this day to the 28th and the operation will begin in earnest from March 1.

The hydrogen charging station here is equipped with facilities such as electric vehicle charging and energy storage systems (ESS), as well as on-site hydrogen vehicle charging, and serves as the basis for non-polluting comprehensive vehicles (vehicles hydrogen, electric vehicles).

The Ministry of Environment has been promoting the hydrogen charging station project through close communication with the city of Seoul, Seocho-gu and local residents for the transition to a city without fine dust and a city that is carbon neutral.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of the Environment has held non-face-to-face briefings for Seocho-gu residents to increase acceptance of the hydrogen charging stations and has endeavored to reopen the Yangjae hydrogen charging station based on trust. in security the hydrogen charging station.

The Ministry of Environment hopes that more hydrogen charging stations will be built in central Seoul using these examples of communication and collaboration.

The reopening of the Yangjae hydrogen charging station is expected to facilitate the charging of hydrogen vehicles in Seoul.

As of the end of January this year, 1,719 hydrogen vehicles are registered in Seoul, and Seocho-gu is the only autonomous district with more than 200 vehicles registered at the same time as the number one registered hydrogen vehicle among 25 autonomous districts.

So far, Seocho-gu residents have had trouble using the National Assembly charging station, but as the Yangjae hydrogen charging station is operated, charging conditions improve and fuel purchase costs improve. of hydrogen are also discounted by 30%.

Minister Han Jeong-ae congratulated the reopening of the Yangjae hydrogen charging station and urged officials who were present to do their best to create the conditions for citizens to charge hydrogen more conveniently.

Minister Han said: “We will try to expand hydrogen charging stations early by using public sites in Seoul and existing LPG filling stations and gas stations so that we can experience the results of the Green New Deal.”
