In the Netherlands, Offshore Energy reported that China’s largest integrated offshore photovoltaic (PV) demonstration project, combining solar power, hydrogen production and refueling, and energy storage, has been connected to the grid for power generation. Hengtong Group announced that this development marks the launch of “China’s first” PV project aimed at ecological remediation of tidal flats. The project integrates PV technology with intelligent control systems to enhance energy conversion and storage, according to the report. The facility is projected to generate approximately 460 million kWh annually by incorporating hydrogen production and utilization. This output is expected to offset around 151,000 tons of standard coal, cutting CO2 emissions by over 309,000 tons, SO2 by more than 5,600 tons, and NO2 by around 11,250 tons per year, the company noted.
