en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 7, it was learned from China Energy Investment Corporation (CHN Energy) that China's independently developed hydrogen-coal co-firing technology has achieved, for the first time, a large-scale 50% green hydrogen blending ratio and 100% pure hydrogen combustion, marking a major breakthrough in China's clean and low-carbon hydrogen-coal co-firing technology.

This technology employs a fully self-developed low-nitrogen burner for hydrogen-coal co-combustion, establishing a full-process safety protection system from hydrogen delivery to furnace combustion. This enables thorough mixing and combustion of hydrogen and pulverized coal within the boiler, achieving a 50% heat input ratio of hydrogen blending in the test setup. This means that when using green hydrogen, coal savings and carbon emission reductions can reach up to 50%, while effectively controlling nitrogen oxide generation.

China operates the world's largest coal-fired power generation capacity. The green and low-carbon transformation of the coal power industry holds significant practical importance for achieving the "dual carbon" goals. This achievement validates a promising technological pathway for achieving substantial carbon emission reductions in future coal-fired power units, and is of great significance for China's green and low-carbon transition of coal power and the integrated development of coal power with new energy sources.
