Mitsubishi Heavy Industries: Collaboration with US Electric Power Entertainment Co., Ltd.

-Hydrogen-related research to decarbonization-

December 28, 2020

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries:

In collaboration with US electric power giant Entertainment Corporation (Louisiana), we will embark on joint research on hydrogen production, storage, and utilization in the United States.

This will lead to the development of thermal power generation systems that use hydrogen to reduce CO2 emissions.

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries aims for virtually zero global warming gas emissions by 2050.

entergy:

A comprehensive collaboration between Mitsubishi Power, an affiliated thermal power generation equipment company, and Entertainment.

Increase alliances with domestic and overseas companies in the next-generation energy field such as the use of hydrogen.

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries: “Hydrogen Steel Works” starts operation

2020.12.29

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries

Next year, the world’s largest hydrogen steelworks will be put into trial operation in Europe.

Decoalization addresses major industry challenges.

Fest Alpine:

According to the Nihon Keizai Shimbun on the 28th, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries will build a hydrogen steel plant in collaboration with Austrian steel giant Fest Alpine.

We plan to start demonstration operation next year.

Direct reduction ironmaking (DRI) method:

The equipment that Mitsubishi builds is a hydrogen steelworks that uses the direct reduction steelmaking (DRI) method.

Use hydrogen instead of coke, which emits a large amount of carbon dioxide.

Therefore, there is no real carbon dioxide emission.

With an annual production of 250,000 tons, it is the largest hydrogen steelworks in the world.
