It will become China's first integrated demonstration project at a port for green hydrogen production, transportation, storage, and usage
China Classification Society Certification Co Ltd, affiliated with the Ministry of Transport, awarded Weifang Port, a part of Shandong Port Group subsidiary Bohaiwan Port, the carbon neutrality certification on Oct. 15, marking it becoming China's first zero-carbon emission port.
The achievement is a major step toward China's carbon peak and neutrality goals and serves as a model for the port sector across the country, according to experts.
Weifang Port's carbon neutrality was achieved through a combination of emission-reduction measures, including the construction of wind power facilities, the use of hydrogen-powered vehicles, the promotion of electric energy alternatives, and the automation of key operations.
On Sept. 30, the port successfully connected its onshore distributed wind power project to the grid, making it the first of its kind in Shandong.
According to the port's estimates, compared to traditional coal-fired power plants generating the same amount of electricity, this wind power project will save 21,000 tons of standard coal annually, significantly benefiting the environment.
Recently, the port also launched an electricity-to-hydrogen project. It will become China's first integrated demonstration project at a port for green hydrogen production, transportation, storage, and usage, providing 5 million kWh of green electricity annually.
