The first integrated energy station in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area was put into operation in Guangzhou on Monday, which will provide gasoline and hydrogen refueling, battery recharging, convenience stores and auto services, said its operator China Petroleum & Chemical Corp.

The station is intended to boost the rapid development of clean energy industry in the GBA and further facilitate China‘s ambitions of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060 and peaking carbon emissions by 2030.

With a daily hydrogen refueling capacity of 500 kilograms, the station is able to satisfy the hydrogen demand of 60 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. It will mainly serve buses, logistics vehicles and sanitation vehicles in the GBA.

It is also capable of charging four electric vehicles simultaneously and can provide 80 charging services per day, the company said.

With distributed photovoltaic power generating equipment covering more than 100 square meters at the station, it is also capable of producing 11,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity each year, which satisfies daily power demand of the station.

The company plans to invest 30 billion yuan ($4.71 billion) during the 14th Five-Year Plan period in hydrogen-related businesses, including hydrogen refueling stations and hydrogen storage facility construction. The company also plans to build 1,000 hydrogen refueling stations, 5,000 charging and battery swap stations and 7,000 distributed photovoltaic power generation facilities during the 14th Five-Year Plan period.
