JNK Heater Wins Contract for Equipment Supply and Construction of Hydrogen Production Base in Changwon City

[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] JNK Heater announced on the 26th that it has been selected as the preferred negotiation partner for the supply and construction of hydrogen extractors and hydrogen shipment facilities for the hydrogen production base construction project being promoted in Changwon-si, Gyeongnam, and has secured the project.

The project will be established in Seongju-dong, Changwon-si, producing 1000kg of hydrogen per day. It will serve not only the Seongju Hydrogen Charging Station but also supply hydrogen to other hydrogen charging stations and industrial sites operating within the jurisdiction. With support from a national R&D project, JNK Heater has already installed an extractor capable of producing 500kg of hydrogen per day at the same production base and is currently operating hydrogen production.

Through this project, Changwon-si will install one additional extractor with the same specifications as the currently operating hydrogen extractor, expanding the total daily hydrogen production capacity to 1000kg. Additionally, shipment facilities capable of charging hydrogen into tube trailers will be completed in the latter half of this year to begin full-scale hydrogen supply.

Earlier this year, JNK Heater secured contracts for the supply and construction of facilities for the Cheongju and Jecheon hydrogen charging stations ordered by Korea Gas Technology Corporation and is currently progressing with the construction. Recently, it completed contracts for the supply and construction of charging facilities for three hydrogen charging stations in the Gyeonggi area ordered by HyNet, and is currently establishing about 10 hydrogen charging stations nationwide.
