Founded in March 2021 as a subsidiary of LONGi Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (LONGi), Xi’an LONGi Hydrogen Technology Co., Ltd. (LONGi Hydrogen) is commited to becoming the world’s large-scale electrolyzer and green hydrogen production solution provider. The Company is headquartered in Xi’an, Shaanxi province and its hydrogen production equipment plant is located in Wuxi, Jiangsu province. LONGi was founded in 2000 and has become a world-leading solar technology company. By thriving in five business segments, including mono-crystalline silicon wafers, cells and modules, industrial and commercial DG, green energy solutions, and hydrogen production equipment. LONGi has begun to conduct strategic research on the hydrogen energy industrial chain since 2018. In March 2021, LONGi Hydrogen was registered in Xi’an with its factory set up in Wuxi in April. The first 1000Nm³/h ALK electrolyzer rolled off the production line in October.
In terms of products and solutions, in February 2023, LONGi Hydrogen launched the new product-LONGi ALK Hi1, which achieved an industrial leading energy efficiency of the commercial electrolyzer. ALK Hi1 reduces OPEX with the DC power consumption of 4.0kWh/Nm³. Every 0.1kWh/Nm³ reduction in DC power consumption for electrolyzer reduces the LCOH by 1.8%-2.2%, equivalent to a reduction of 10% to 25% of the CAPEX. LONGi ALK G series products are launched in September, with single stack capacities of 1200Nm³/h, 1500Nm³/h, 2000Nm³/h and 3000Nm³/h. The large-scale electrolyzers are more demanded in the industries such as steel, chemicals and metallurgy. By up-sizing the single stack of electrolyzer, it can help to save more than 30% of the footprint and reduce the CAPEX of 20%. In November 2023, LONGi Hydrogen released the “Green Power + Green Hydrogen” solutions which have been used for more than 10GW of green hydrogen projects design since its launch. Leveraging on the self-developed intelligent EMS, the optimized electrolyzer systems as well as the energy scheduling and cluster control strategy, the solution is aiming to cope flexbily with the fluctuation of renewable energy. In March 2024, LONGi Hydrogen obtained 2 AOC reports of “low load” and “durability” awarded by DEKRA, using real project data to demonstrate LONGi’s stability, reliability, and technological leadership.
From the perspective of achievements, In May 2022, LONGi Hydrogen successfully won the bid for the world’s first 20,000-ton green hydrogen demonstration project. In April 2023, LONGi Hydrogen successfully won the bid for the world’s largest green ammonia project with the first place. In June 2023, LONGi Hydrogen signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Xingguo Refinery to build the industrialized application demonstration project. Meanwhile, based on the global deployment of LONGi group, LONGi Hydrogen also achieved projects cooperation in India, Australia, Europe, America and other regions. According to BloombergNEF (BNEF), LONGi Hydrogen’s capacity reached 2.5GW in 2023 and ranked No.1 in the world. In 2023, LONGi Hydrogen won 300MW bidding in total and was ranked No.1 in domestic market. A single electrolyser with a capacity of 3,000Nm³/h has been shipped, which is the largest in the world. LONGi Hydrogen leads the way in reducing CAPEX and OPEX through continuous technological iteration, and achieves optimal LCOH. To bring customers products with higher energy efficiency, reliability, and profits, LONGi Hydrogen’s solutions are widely used in various scenarios such as petrochemical, chemical, electric power, metallurgy, transportation, etc.
LONGi aims to provide clean, reliable, affordable green energy to communities.
