On October 31, 2023, Shenzhen Kohoda Hydrogen Energy Co., Ltd. and Shaanxi Normal University signed a Strategic Cooperation Agreement on Hydrogen Energy Technology Development in SNNU’s Chang’an Campus.

The signing ceremony was held in the conference room of SNNU’s Institute of New Concept Sensors and Molecular Materials. Kohoda chairman Chen Kaijia and president Ouyang Jian, SNNU Prof. Wang Zenglin, Prof. Ma Jiani, Prof. Liu Kaiqiang, Associate researcher Bo Xin and INCSMM Administrative Office director Yang Xiaogang attended the ceremony. The ceremony was presided over by INCSMM vice deaqn Prof. Ding Liping, and witnessed by Prof. Chuan Zhao from the University of New South Wales, Australia. Ouyang Jian and Bo Xin signed the agreement as representatives of both sides.

At the ceremony, the two sides had a discussion and exchange on the enterprise situation, hydrogen energy technology development, cooperative project, and cooperation basis, etc.

As an ideal environment-friendly energy source with high energy density, hydrogen energy is of great significance to promoting the transformation of energy structure and building a diversified clean energy system, and is a key energy technology for China to achieve the goal of Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality. The two sides will focus on the development of efficient catalysts for producing hydrogen by water electrolysis, and carry out research on core technologies for hydrogen production by electrolytic water, build an innovation link of “bottom design - basic R&D - application verification - steady expansion”, and share resources, complement advantages, and jointly solve key problems in scientific research, technological innovation, and application demonstration, so as to realize the autonomy of new hydrogen production technology and the large-scale application of green hydrogen.
