“Completion of Korea’s largest hydrogen charging facility, Pyeongtaek Port ‘Hydrogen Transportation Complex Base’

Gyeonggi Pyeongtaek Port Authority plans to operate a hydrogen mobility startup center from 2024

[Break News Southern Gyeonggi = Pyeongtaek Reporter Lee Gwi-seon] The completion ceremony for the Pyeongtaek Port Hydrogen Transportation Complex Base was held at the Gyeonggi Pyeongtaek Port Authority Poseung National Industrial Complex.

According to the construction company on the 10th, the completion ceremony was attended by related organizations such as the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, Gyeonggi Province, and Korea Gas Technology Corporation, National Assembly member Hong Ki-won, Gyeonggi Provincial Council member Seo Hyeon-ok, Lee Hak-soo, and the general public to build a hydrogen transportation complex base to build an eco-friendly port. He said he congratulated the completion of the construction.

A total of KRW 12.9 billion was invested in the Pyeongtaek Port Hydrogen Transportation Complex Base, which was selected as a public offering project by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in December 2020, and was built with an area of 5,000 ㎥ on land owned by the Gyeonggi Pyeongtaek Port Authority.

The Pyeongtaek Port Hydrogen Transportation Complex is Korea's largest high-capacity hydrogen charging facility that can charge large vehicles such as commercial trucks, car carriers, and buses. It will be connected to the Pyeongtaek Port hydrogen production facility through a pipeline in the future to produce hydrogen with a price competitiveness compared to other charging stations. It is expected to be supplied.

Additionally, as part of ESG management, Gyeonggi Pyeongtaek Port Authority plans to operate driver convenience facilities and a hydrogen mobility startup center operated by vulnerable groups such as social enterprises together with Pyeongtaek City.

Kim Seok-gu, CEO of Gyeonggi Pyeongtaek Port Authority, said, “The completion of the Pyeongtaek Port Hydrogen Transportation Complex Base will be the beginning of building an eco-friendly hydrogen port, and we will also provide an opportunity to secure future growth engines for Pyeongtaek Port by supporting the operation of an eco-friendly hydrogen mobility startup center. “I will actively work hard,” he said.
