Sinopec's first "carbon neutrality" device was certified
Sinochem New Network News On September 2, as an important hydrogen energy supply guarantee device of Sinopec, Yanshan Petrochemical's hydrogen new energy device successfully passed the independent certification of carbon emissions and carbon emission reduction measures, and was awarded by Beijing Samsung 90th Certification Center."Carbon Neutrality" evaluation certificate. This is Sinopec's first "carbon neutrality" demonstration device.
It is understood that in 2020, Yanshan Petrochemical took the opportunity of serving the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics to build and put into use a 2000 standard cubic meters per hour hydrogen new energy device, producing hydrogen that meets the requirements for fuel cells, with a purity of 99.999%, becoming China's petrochemical system. The first company that can produce hydrogen for automotive fuel cells. In 2022, the hydrogen produced by Yanshan Petrochemical Company successfully ignited the main torch of the Winter Olympics, achieving zero carbon emissions from the torch in the history of the Winter Olympics and demonstrating to the world the vigorous development of hydrogen energy in the Chinese capital. Up to now, the company has supplied nearly 3000 tons of fuel cell hydrogen to the market, ranking first in production and sales among Sinopec.
In 2024, the company will comprehensively sort out the energy consumption structure of hydrogen new energy devices, analyze energy consumption such as electricity, nitrogen, and industrial wind, check the carbon emissions generated by device personnel and various production links, and trace the source of carbon emissions. On this basis, by purchasing green electricity from new energy power plants such as Inner Mongolia and Shanxi, using renewable energy consumption to offset carbon emissions, and scientifically combining multiple energy-saving and emission reduction measures to finally achieve the goal of net zero emissions from the plant.
Recently, the expert group of Beijing Samsung Jiuqian Certification Center spent seven days using document review and in-depth on-site verification to conduct a scientific evaluation of Yanshan Petrochemical's "carbon neutrality" implementation plan, carbon management mechanism, greenhouse gas emission process and results, as well as carbon emission reduction measures and carbon offset methods. The expert group confirmed that Yanshan Petrochemical's hydrogen new energy device will achieve the net zero emission target in 2023 and meet the "carbon neutral" device certification requirements.
In 2023, Yanshan Petrochemical will achieve green electricity consumption of 16.3% of purchased electricity, completing Sinopec's goal of expanding the proportion of green electricity consumption seven years ahead of schedule. As of now, Yanshan Petrochemical has purchased green electricity accounting for 16.15% of the planned purchased electricity throughout the year, a record high for the same period, and has become the largest green electricity trading user in Beijing City for four consecutive years. The company will continue to expand green electricity consumption, and will successively carry out "carbon neutrality" evaluation and certification in other production units based on the actual situation of green electricity consumption and the photovoltaic power generation effect within the enterprise.
