1. Hydrogen Energy

Hydrogen is a uniquely efficient, environmentally friendly, and universal energy resource that doesn’t produce waste exhaust gas. Here are some benefits of using hydrogen as an energy source. Hydrogen can be produced as a by-product, from steam methane reforming or through electrolysis. Currently, 90% of hydrogen is produced through reforming. Efforts are being made to convert to the eco-friendlier electrolysis production method.

2. Korea’s Hydrogen Economy Business and Goals

-Current Korean Hydrogen Economy Business

. Hydrogen vehicles: The world’s first hydrogen car has been successfully mass produced with 99% of core components produced domestically (600km/ 1 charge)

. Fuel cells: Korean petrochemical facilities have sufficient production capacity of by-product hydrogen needed for hydrogen vehicles

. Natural Gas: Korea has a natural gas supply network that can economically supply hydrogen to the entire country

-Goals of Korean Hydrogen Business

The impact of hydrogen on the Korean economy is forecast to grow from approximately USD 13 billion in 2022 to approximately USD 20 billion in 2030. By 2050, it is estimated that hydrogen energy will make up 33% of total energy consumption and 23% of energy production to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 200 million tons. According to this estimation, hydrogen is set to replace the largest energy source in 2020, petroleum, to become the sole largest energy source in Korea by 2050.

3. Korea Hydrogen Energy Policy Timeline

. 2019, Release of the Hydrogen Economy Vitalization Roadmap

. 2021, Release of ‘2050 Carbon-Neutral Strategy’ for conversion to carbon-neutral society

. 2022, Enactment of ‘Hydrogen Law’: World’s first legislation aimed at fostering a hydrogen economy and safe hydrogen practices

4. Doosan and Doosan Corporation Electro-Materials Hydrogen Business

-Doosan Hydrogen Business

Doosan is fostering eco-friendly solutions such as hydrogen fuel cells, hydrogen drones and hydrogen turbines as a force of future growth and using Doosan core technology to lead the way to a hydrogen powered society.

Doosan Corporation Electro-Materials’ electrode business is one facet of the Doosan Group hydrogen value chain responsible for creating the core material electrode of hydrogen fuel cells.

- The Role of Electrodes in Hydrogen Fuel Cells: The Driving Force of Fuel Cells

. Hydrogen molecules pass through the negative electrode (anode) and are split into hydrogen protons and hydrogen electrons.

. The hydrogen protons then pass through a catalyst and are combined with oxygen in the positive electrode (cathode) to produce water and generate power.

- Doosan Corporation Electro-Materials Electrode Solution

. Durability: Functions as a catalyst with high durability to withstand 200°C acidic conditions

. Reliability: 10-year cell stack lifetime guaranteed

. Performance: Optimal electrode design for optimal PAFC performance
