This plan contains a comprehensive strategy for advancing as a hub city for clean hydrogen production and utilization. Key elements include: a customized hydrogen ecosystem strategy reflecting the characteristics of the Paju region; an integrated process plan for hydrogen production facilities; and sector-specific hydrogen utilization plans for transportation, industry, and daily life.

Based on this plan, the city intends to build infrastructure in phases and establish a hydrogen economy ecosystem where the production, supply, and utilization of hydrogen form a virtuous cycle.

As the first phase of the project, by June 2027, the city will establish hydrogen production facilities in conjunction with the modernization of the Environmental Circulation Center. Through this, Paju plans to produce 500 kilograms of clean hydrogen per day, creating an eco-friendly model that simultaneously achieves greenhouse gas reduction and resource circulation.

Park Juntae, Director of the Environment Bureau, stated, "This basic plan for the Mini Hydrogen City Development Project is an important milestone for Paju City to lead the way toward carbon neutrality," adding, "We will expand the hydrogen ecosystem centered on hydrogen production facilities to create changes that citizens can truly experience."
