In the Netherlands, Offshore Energy reported that the Hong Kong and China Gas Company (Towngas) and clean energy equipment and services provider CIMC ENRIC have signed a strategic partnership agreement to jointly develop green methanol and hydrogen energy.
The partnership will reportedly encompass cooperation across hydrogen extraction, purification, storage, and utilization. Both companies are expected to develop advanced hydrogen extraction and storage technologies whilst expanding hydrogen applications in transport, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and other sectors, according to the report.
To note, approximately half of Towngas’s gas supply in Hong Kong is said to comprise hydrogen, delivered through an underground pipeline network spanning over 3,700 kilometers across the territory, the report added.
