It provides robust support for China’s efforts to achieve independent, controllable green‑hydrogen equipment and to scale up the industry.
The head of R&D at Xingran Technology stated: “This newly commissioned 500 Nm³/h PEM electrolyzer, developed through iterative upgrades based on the company’s mature 250 Nm³/h mass-production platform, represents a next-generation, high‑power flagship system designed for commercial deployment. It can produce hydrogen not only in conventional grid‑connected applications but also…” Perfectly matches the wide-ranging fluctuations of renewable energy generation. , in Under extreme operating conditions without grid support Still maintain High energy 、 Stability its hydrogen‑production capacity. At present, the product has undergone full‑process engineering validation and is expected to enter large‑scale mass production by the end of 2026.
Key Technological Innovation Highlights
The single‑cell unit delivers a rated hydrogen production capacity of up to 500 Nm³/h, redefining the benchmark for megawatt‑scale hydrogen generation with industry‑leading energy efficiency. This not only significantly simplifies system integration for large‑scale hydrogen projects but also substantially reduces both the footprint and long‑term operation and maintenance costs.
The rated energy consumption is as low as ≤4.3 kWh/m³, placing it at the industry’s leading level. By achieving higher hydrogen production efficiency with lower energy input, it enhances energy utilization from the source, providing a core guarantee for the long-term, stable, and cost‑effective operation of green hydrogen.
While balancing high energy efficiency with long operational life, it achieves stable operation at a high current density of 2 A/cm². This breakthrough significantly enhances the hydrogen production capacity per unit area, enabling more compact device footprints and further improving hydrogen‑production efficiency.
It employs highly corrosion‑resistant bipolar plates and a highly reliable sealing structure, specifically engineered for the high‑variability, variable‑load conditions and off‑grid applications typical of new energy systems. The equipment delivers rapid dynamic response, ensuring system stability and reliability even under extreme operating conditions.
Through an innovative structured sealing and stress‑balancing design, coupled with CFD fluid dynamics and structural mechanics optimization analyses, pressure dead zones have been effectively eliminated. This fundamentally prevents leakage risks under extreme operating conditions, ensuring reliable and stable production.
It employs a modular, stackable architecture that is easy to assemble and occupies minimal floor space. The unit measures just 1104×936×1600 mm (excluding inlet and outlet piping), facilitating transportation and flexible scalability, and can be widely deployed across diverse applications, including off-grid wind‑solar hydrogen production, grid‑connected hydrogen generation, industrial hydrogen supply, and energy storage for peak‑shaving.
Leveraging end-to-end independent R&D and large-scale manufacturing of core components, we have achieved significant lifecycle cost optimization, reducing hydrogen production costs by approximately 50%. While maintaining high performance and reliability, we offer customers more competitive pricing and enhanced investment returns, improving project economics and accelerating the transition of the green hydrogen industry toward grid‑parity commercialization.
Mass production is accelerating, with a broad market outlook.
Leveraging the company’s 26,000-square-meter state-of-the-art smart factory and automated production lines, Xingran Technology will swiftly establish a reliable supply capacity, meeting the urgent demands of large-scale green hydrogen projects and diverse application scenarios both domestically and internationally.
From large-scale mass production at 250 Nm³/h to the successful launch of a new product at 500 Nm³/h, Xingran Technology has continuously expanded its product portfolio through sustained technological innovation, maintaining a leading position in core competitiveness within the industry.
Facing a strategic period of rapid growth in the international green hydrogen market, Xingran Technology stated that it will continue to… High power, high energy efficiency, and high reliability Centering on its core technologies, the company is accelerating technological innovation and market expansion while providing comprehensive services to customers worldwide. Working hand in hand with partners across industries, it is building a green energy ecosystem, leveraging its domestically developed, cutting-edge capabilities to support the achievement of China’s “dual carbon” goals and the global energy transition.
