The Jupiter One is the most powerful and largest pure hydrogen generator on the planet. It was developed in collaboration with Mingyang Smart Energy, known for colossal wind turbines, and Mingyang Hydrogen Energy along with several research teams and smaller enterprises.

Through advancements in combustion chamber design, the companies were able to overcome major technical challenges typically faced with hydrogen combustion like managing fluctuations in pressure, flow, or combustion dynamics within the system, known as oscillations, and reducing the sheer amount of emissions – especially on such a large scale.

The end result is a proprietary hydrogen gas turbine, putting China at the top of innovative hydrogen energy design.

The scale of the Jupiter One is staggering. The image provided by Mingyang shows a fuel consumption rate of 443.45t/h (tons per hour) through its ten firing chambers. To put that into perspective, the Hindenburg airship, infamous for being filled with hydrogen before its catastrophic demise, was filled with roughly 18 metric tons of hydrogen. The Jupiter One generator moves enough hydrogen to fill the Hindenburg about 25 times per hour.

Also, according to the image above, the bright red text reads "Ignition Successful." The generator was running at 1,162 RPM with a power output (top right) of 0.00 MW. The bottom graph shows the temperature of each of the ten chambers (1A through 10B) in Celsius.

Mingyang states that the use of large-scale hydrogen generators would ensure grid stability and mitigate the curtailment issues (overproducing at times, when the grid can't handle the output energy at that moment) of large-scale renewable energy projects like wind and solar that are upwards of 1 GW.

While the original press release on STDaily doesn't specify how the generator could fix issues like curtailment, it could theoretically do so by "storing" the excess energy through other means, like using excess power for electrolysis. By splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen – which requires a substantial amount of electricity – they could make more fuel for later use.
