​​​​​​SUNBO Unitec participated in 'H2 MEET 2023' held at KINTEX Exhibition Hall 1 in Goyang from September 13th to 15th and introduced its flagship product, eco-friendly energy solutions, including PEM TYPE water electrolysis equipment.  this H2 MEET, over 300 energy companies, including 88 overseas companies from 18 countries, participated in ▲Hydrogen production (water electrolysis, carbon capture , new and renewable energy, etc.) ▲Hydrogen storage and transportation (hydrogen charging station, hydrogen tank, liquefaction/gas, etc.) Pipelines, land/sea transportation, etc.) ▲ Promoted technologies related to hydrogen utilization ( mobility , fuel cells, services, steel, chemicals, etc.). SUNBO Unitech exhibited various water electrolysis facility models consisting of single stack and multiple stack, from H₂ GEN 100 (50KW) to H₂ GEN X (XMW).  Compared to AEC TYPE water electrolysis equipment, the PEM TYPE water electrolysis equipment exhibited by SUNBO Unitec has the advantage of having a lower probability of corrosion, high current density, and fast response speed, making it possible to miniaturize the device due to high energy efficiency. In addition to the quality competitiveness of its water electrolysis facilities, SUNBO Unitec also promoted its production and delivery performance of facilities such as Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Plant 50KW, Kogiwon 100KW, Doosan 300KW, Ulsan Techno Park 500KW, Jeonnam Techno Park 1MW, and Korea Southern Power Plant 2MW.  At the exhibition, which lasted for three days, various side events were held, including the H2 Innovation Award, global business export consultation, MOU signing, conference, technology seminar, and meeting.  SUNBO Unitech plans to further grow its global technological capabilities by participating in this H2 MEET and accelerate the development of anion exchange membrane AEM electrolysis STACK technology. This is similar to PEM TYPE and has the advantage of extremely high hydrogen production efficiency by using an anion exchange membrane as an electrolyte. Besides this SUNBO Unitec is actively conducting sales targeting steel shipyards in each country in order to enter overseas markets such as China, Australia, Europe, and the United States.​​​

 SUNBO Industry A Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU) was signed with Dongseong Finetech , K Shipbuilding, and Korea Register (KR) to jointly develop a 12K CBM class liquefied CO2 (LCO2) carrier design.  SUNBO Industries takes the lead in the development of cargo handling systems and fuel supply systems, while K Josun leads the development and design optimization of LCO2 carriers (19 bar medium pressure type ). Dongseong Finetech is responsible for developing the LCO2 cargo tank and LNG fuel tank, and KR plans to verify the safety and suitability of the ship in accordance with classification rules and international agreements and ultimately grant Approval of Concept (AIP) certification for the design.  At the signing ceremony, each company discussed project success strategies together and agreed on the need to secure technologies that will lead decarbonization in response to the climate crisis and global warming. Close cooperation between project participating companies, including SUNBO Industries, is expected to promote the development of a 12K CBM-level LCO2 carrier with improved efficiency. SUNBO Industries plans to strengthen technological and business partnerships with domestic and foreign companies to quickly respond to carbon regulations .​​

​Promotion of key products such as PEM water electrolysis system and LPG & ammonia reliquefaction system. SUNBO participated in the global exhibition ' Gastech 2023 ' held at the Singapore Expo from September 5th to 8th and showcased its leading eco-friendly green energy solution technology.  GASTEC is an international exhibition related to eco-friendly ships and energy with more than 750 exhibitors from over 100 countries around the world. Celebrating its 51st anniversary this year, Gastech boasts the largest authority of its kind and introduces innovative global technologies every year related to natural gas, LNG, hydrogen, low-carbon solutions, and climate response.  SUNBO Industries Co., Ltd. has ▲H2 GEN (PEM type water electrolysis system) ▲PEM electrolysis sys tem ​(cation exchange membrane electrolysis system) ▲LPG & ammonia reliquefaction system ▲LNG FGSS (fuel gas supply system) ▲CCS ( carbon capture and storage) ) technology, etc.  The PEM type water electrolysis system, one of SUNBO's core product, is a high-quality facility capable of producing ultra-high purity hydrogen of over 99.999%, contributing greatly to the realization of carbon neutrality by expanding the supply of clean hydrogen. Following the delivery of a 50kW-class facility to Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power last year, SUNBO supplied a 300kW-class facility to a national project of the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy in March of this year, and plans to deliver 100kW, 500kW, 1MW, and 2MW-class water electrolysis facilities by 2024. The LPG & ammonia re-liquefaction system and the LNG fuel gas supply system are core technologies used in eco-friendly ship engines and are considered a new growth engine for SUNBO .  This time through Gastec, we were able to gain various advantages such as identifying market trends in the global energy industry, establishing partnerships with innovative companies , securing investment opportunities, and sharing key energy-related agendas.​ 

​SUNBO Unitec collaborates with KEPCO Research Institute for hydrogen co-firing of 150MW gas turbine A research project agreement was signed for ‘Retrofit technology development and verification’.   SUNBO Unitec participated in the agreement ceremony held at the KEPCO Research Institute on July 11 along with a total of 17 organizations, including the government, power generation companies, industry, academia, and research institutes. This agreement was concluded to achieve the goal of reducing greenhouse gases in the power generation sector.  Currently , the global hydrogen co-firing market is showing continuous growth as a means of reducing greenhouse gases from gas turbine combined cycle power plants . Accordingly , securing technologies such as ▲ gas turbine combustor modification ▲ hydrogen co-firing operation ▲ natural gas-hydrogen mixed supply ▲ hydrogen safety management to apply hydrogen to gas turbines has emerged as a key issue. Korea Electric Power Research Institute is continuously developing and demonstrating technology to convert old gas turbines to hydrogen co- firing so that the utilization rate of gas turbine combined cycle power plants can be improved and greenhouse gas reduction effects can be achieved at the same time.  SUNBO Unitec plans to collaborate with 17 organizations to develop technology to convert existing gas turbines to hydrogen co-firing by more than 50% and demonstrate it for the first combined gas turbine units in Seoincheon and Shinincheon. If the long-term demonstration of 50% hydrogen co-firing is successful for large gas turbines of 100 MW or more, it can greatly contribute to achieving the goal of reducing greenhouse gases by domestically producing global-level hydrogen co-firing technology. By building a large-capacity hydrogen power generation complex infrastructure centered on the metropolitan area with high power generation capacity, it is expected that it will be able to smoothly supply to other urban areas such as Busan with high energy consumption.  SUNBO Unitec is running as a leader in the future energy industry by signing an MOU in the field of eco-friendly and energy new business and plant modules with a large domestic company, participating in a hydrogen co-fired gas turbine power generation project, and taking charge of system diagnosis and local production of parts. In particular, as the company declared a major transformation into a comprehensive green energy solution company in 2021 and is focusing on supporting technology development and commercialization, it is expected to play a role in the success of this government project based on its systematic system and capabilities.  SUNBO Unitec received an order for the Mixing station among the co-fired power generation systems in March 2022 and delivered it in December 2022.​
