Wuxi, China, October 8th, 2024 - LONGi Hydrogen has successfully shipped four sets of 1000Nm³/h high-current-density medium-pressure alkaline electrolyzer equipment for the first green ammonia pilot project in Uzbekistan.

The first phase, a 3,000-tonne green ammonia pilot project, has achieved cooperation between ACWA Power, POWERCHINA Huadong Engineering and LONGi Hydrogen. LONGi Hydrogen provides the total hydrogen production solution with the key equipment for the first phase of the project. Upon full completion, the whole project will be ACWA Power’s second utility-scale green hydrogen project after the NEOM Green Hydrogen Project in Saudi Arabia. 

Marco Arcelli, ACWA Power CEO, commented: “This project marks a significant milestone in Uzbekistan’s energy history, representing the first phase of our collaboration. We are proud to be working with our partners to deliver the green hydrogen project, which will make a deep impact on the country’s ambitious energy transition plans. Looking ahead, we are committed to progressing further in the near future to achieve even greater milestones.”

LONGi Hydrogen is committed to transforming the landscape of green hydrogen projects, seamlessly transitioning from demonstration to full-scale implementation. By prioritizing safety and reliability, LONGi Hydrogen strives to fulfil its promise of driving the global hydrogen evolution. The successful delivery of a 20 MW project in collaboration with ACWA Power in Uzbekistan is a prime example of the capabilities of LONGi Hydrogen that showcases several key strengths: adherence to international standards, the ability to effectively deliver to project sites worldwide, a robust local operations and maintenance (O&M) service capability, and a resilient global supply chain. Through these efforts, LONGi Hydrogen will not only be a practitioner in empowering global hydrogen projects, but also a trusted partner in green hydrogen production solutions.

Mr. Jun Ma, President of LONGi Hydrogen expressed his enthusiasm: This is the first project in Central Asia for LONGi Hydrogen which remarks a significant milestone for global development. We are thrilled to receive recognition from the global partners for our technologies and capabilities. LONGi Hydrogen is dedicated to providing safe and reliable products to accompany our customers for global project development. Leveraging on our innovative products and experienced team, we will continue to drive down the LCOH and make green hydrogen an affordable energy.
