Automation leader will supply advanced
technologies to expand Korea's domestic hydrogen base and build
more sustainable transportation infrastructure
SEOUL,
South Korea, Oct. 16,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Global automation and software
leader Emerson (NYSE: EMR) will provide its advanced technologies
and hydrogen expertise to HyIS-one's new hydrogen refueling station
and storage facility in Busan, South
Korea – the largest hydrogen refueling infrastructure for
commercial vehicles in Korea.
The completed HyIS-one hydrogen refueling station will have a
capacity of 350 kilograms per hour, which can charge more than 200
commercial vehicles, such as buses and trucks, per day. Able to
store up to 1.5 tons of pressurized hydrogen, the facility will
also be equipped as the first large-capacity hydrogen refueling
station for commercial vehicles in Korea that unloads tube trailers
without docking.
"This will not only be the largest hydrogen refueling
station project, but also the first-ever hydrogen storage and
unloading hydrogen refueling station in South Korea," said Kwon Sung-Wook, CEO of
HyIS-one. "With Emerson's hydrogen expertise and innovative
technologies, we plan to lead the commercialization of sustainable
hydrogen infrastructure across the region together."
Emerson's comprehensive portfolio of automation solutions will
help ensure the safety and reliability of HyIS-one's refueling
station. Emerson will provide pressure and temperature
transmitters, ultrasonic gas leak detectors, pressure regulators
and pressure safety valves to deliver the high level of performance
necessary for the commercial project.
HyIS-one reports its refueling speed is an improvement of more
than 50% compared to other refueling stations, characterized by a
highly flexible design that enables the ideal placement of assets
according to changing business requirements. By 2026,
HyIS-one plans to establish up to 30 large hydrogen refueling
stations across the country and secure its own tube trailers to
build a hydrogen refueling system for commercial vehicles.
"We are providing leading automation solutions to partners in
the hydrogen industry all over the world," said JaeSung Jeong, vice president and general
manager of Emerson in South Korea.
"We look forward to contributing our global experience and skills
to HyIS-one to help expand the hydrogen infrastructure throughout
Korea and beyond."
Selected as a private capital subsidy business by the
Ministry of Environment in 2023, HyIS-one is continuously expanding
its hydrogen base, starting with four sites in Busan, Incheon, Ansan and Jeju.
