Who are you and what do you want to stand for with HEE Technologies Hydrogen Energy Era?
I am Xudong Liu, responsible for Business Development at HEE Technologies. I want to stand for energy equity, energy security and environmental sustainability with HEE Technologies.
There is more talk than ever about the future of energy supply. Why is hydrogen the answer to this issue?
For energy equity, as a secondary energy source, hydrogen can be produced from various renewable sources, thus is potential to be free from geographically incurred scarcity and be accessible to everyone.
For energy security, hydrogen can even the distribution of available energy sources in space, as well in time in terms of energy storage, furthermore, coupling different sectors and enhance the overall system resilience.
For environmental sustainability, with fuel cell, the only emission of hydrogen will be pure water, and if the source of hydrogen is wind or solar power, the whole process will be carbon free.
Why is it that your Hydrogen Powerhouse can play a major role on this path - even on a global scale?
Our hydrogen powerhouse can utilize hydrogen with high efficiency and supply both power and heat in a clean, quiet and flexible way. For energy equity, it can be easily moved, installed and managed locally, so to empower communities to decide their own use of energy. For energy security, it can be operated in a highly dynamic way to stabilize the grid, meanwhile supports blackstart and island mode in case of grid outages. For environmental sustainability, the only emission of the whole process is water, and the process is noise- and vibration-free.
How do you want to support your target group on the road to hydrogen?
We offer free consultation on integrating our powerhouse into buildings, energy systems and the whole supply chain. If our system is deployed, we also provide operation and maintenance services. With our system, we aim to facilitate the self-sufficiency of our target group, help them go green with comfort and ease.
