康明斯公司與中國石化集團公司宣佈以50:50的比例組建合資企業——康明斯恩澤制氫科技有限公司。
康明斯位於中國廣東省佛山市，最初將投資 4,700 萬美元(3 億元人民幣)，以設立一家生產質子交換膜 (PEM) 電解槽製造工廠。該工廠將於2023年建成，初步具備年產500兆瓦電解槽的產能，未來五年將逐步增加產能，達到年產1吉瓦的產能。
康明斯還將提供多種制氫系統解決方案，以滿足多樣化的應用需求這將包括為小規模製氫提供電解槽，例如用於現場制氫的氫燃料系統，以及容量為 100 兆瓦及以上的大型制氫裝置。
該合資企業將透過提高技術創新、研發和製造能力，加快綠色氫的可承受性和可用性。
“中國擁抱綠色氫對地球來說是一個突破，康明斯和中石化聯手實現綠色氫的潛力是擴大我們創新的 PEM 電解槽系統的巨大飛躍，”新能源副總裁兼總裁 Amy Davis 說。“康明斯是 1979 年第一批在中國建立實體的跨國公司之一，我們很高興現在能夠利用我們深厚的根基和本地化專業知識站在中國能源轉型的最前沿。該合資企業彙集了康明斯和中石化的創新精神和對更可持續發展的未來的追求結合在一起，實現無碳經濟。”

Cummins Inc. and China Petrochemical Corporation announced the formation of a 50:50 joint venture — Cummins Enze Hydrogen Technology Co., Ltd.
Cummins Enze, located in Foshan, Guangdong Province in China, will initially invest $47 million (RMB 300 million) to locate a manufacturing plant to produce proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers. The plant will initially have a manufacturing capacity of 500 megawatts of electrolyzers per year upon completion in 2023, which will be gradually increased over the next five years to reach one gigawatt of manufacturing capacity per year.
Cummins Enze will also provide a variety of hydrogen generation system solutions to meet diversified application requirements. This will include offering electrolyzers for both small-scale hydrogen production, such as a hydrogen fueling system for on-site hydrogen generation, as well as for large-scale hydrogen generation installations capable of 100 megawatts and beyond.
The joint venture will accelerate the affordability and availability of green hydrogen through increased technological innovation, research and development, and manufacturing capacity.
“China’s embrace of green hydrogen is a breakthrough for the planet, and Cummins and Sinopec joining together to realize the potential of green hydrogen is a huge leap forward for scaling our innovative PEM electrolyzer systems,” said Amy Davis, Vice President and President of New Power at Cummins. “Cummins was one of the first multinational companies to establish an entity in China in 1979, and we are thrilled to now use our deep roots and localized expertise to be at the forefront of the country’s energy transformation. This joint venture brings together Cummins’ and Sinopec’s innovative spirits and pursuit of a more sustainable tomorrow, enabling a carbon-free economy.”
