The first phase of the project is expected to enter operation in September, able to produce 1,000 standard cubic meters of high-purity hydrogen and 300 cubic meters of high-purity oxygen per hour.
The project was created by the city's Nedong District government and a power technology company based in south China's city of Shenzhen as the result of investment attraction efforts. The two parties signed a framework agreement on Oct. 30, 2024.
Sonam Phuntsog, head of Nedong, said the project not only contributes to the high-quality development of Xizang's economy but also provides important insights for the development of the plateau's renewable energy industry.
