Chapter 442: Uninvited!

Yang Jie said with a smile: "Mr. Kevin Durant just said that we will build so many fuel power stations will cause bad practices, don't worry, the company's business is not limited to California, now not only the energy crisis in California, other states also have power shortages, sufficient electricity can be transmitted to other states, home fuel cell power supply systems can also be sold to other states." ”

"And now the United States is very strict about the highly polluting thermal power plants, the public is also very resistant to nuclear power plants, and now the cost of natural gas power generation is very high due to the price increase, and fuel cells are very clean energy, especially hydrogen oil technology is very safe, and it can become the mainstream by taking advantage of this opportunity. ”

Hearing Yang Jie's words, these people on the board of directors were secretly relieved, with such strong capital support, the company can quickly get out of the energy crisis, and it can become a new energy giant company in the future.

Yang Jie's eyes turned to the only non-executive director next to him, Barbe Cernyi, the former CEO of Pacific Power and Natural Gas Company.

"Mr. Chelny, I need your help with something!"

This veteran executive who has been engaged in the energy industry for many years, although he screwed up the company in this energy crisis, because of his moderate character, he has deep connections and authority in the American energy circle, which is the real reason why Yang Jie kept him.

"Mr. Yang, you have kept our original promise, so I also keep my promise and fully sponsor the development of the new company. ”

"The new company is about to launch a coal-to-hydrogen project, we need a large number of high-quality and low-cost coal, before this project is put into production, we need to purchase a large number of low-cost industrial hydrogen, and at the same time, we must also get the support of all aspects of California, please come forward to communicate with all parties on behalf of the company, and it is best to acquire a few high-quality coal mines. ”

Barbe Cherny nodded: "There is no problem with this, now the United States is very strict in the control of thermal power stations, and many coal mining companies are operating hard, and we can buy very good high-quality coal minerals." ”

Yang Jie nodded, in fact, the coal resources in the United States are very rich, and the reserves are more than those in Huaxia, in the previous life, a large number of coal resources were exported to Huaxia, until 13 years later, Huaxia's demand for media resources fell, and many coal mining companies in the United States were affected and closed down.

Moreover, after the shale gas technology matured in the United States seven or eight years later, a large amount of cheap natural gas was extracted, and the United States even began to export natural gas, and domestic coal mining companies were even more difficult, which is why the coal-to-hydrogen technology was not developed in the United States.

Now that the price of coal in the United States is very low, and the reserves are very large, Yang Jie naturally has no reason not to use it.

At this stage, the Americans are still very high in terms of consumption power, and it is more appropriate to promote the home fuel cell power supply system in the United States than in Huaxia, and Yang Jie also seized this opportunity to start vigorously promoting.

"Mr. Chelny, in the next two years, please pay attention to utilities in other states, and there are suitable opportunities to make acquisitions or partnerships to promote the expansion of fuel cell products in other states. ”

"Okay, Mr. Yang. Barbe Cherny nodded in agreement.

"Alright, that's all for today's meeting. Yang Jie said: "I don't spend much time in the United States, and the board of directors submits me a specific report on the company every month. ”

With that, he stood up and prepared to leave with Andy Marsch.

"Boss, wait a minute, there's one more thing you need to decide!" Jonathan Blair began.

"What's the matter?"

"The name of the new company has not yet been decided, and will the headquarters of the head office be in San Francisco or Los Angeles in the future?"

Yang Jie pondered for a moment and said: "The name of the new company is called Pioneer Energy Group Company, and the previous two companies were too regional, and neither of them fit the image of the new company. As for the company's headquarters......"

He looked at Jonathan Blair and asked, "What is your opinion?"

San Francisco, which is home to Pacific Power and Natural Gas, and Los Angeles is home to Southern California Edison, would have been hostile to both companies' employees.

"San Francisco!"

Jonathan Blair said quietly.

"Then San Francisco!"

Yang Jie was still very satisfied with his reply, Jonathan Blair was the president of Edison Power in Southern California, and moving the headquarters to San Francisco greatly dispelled an imbalance in the hearts of the employees of Pacific Power and Natural Gas.

At present, most of the senior management of Pioneer Energy Group are Southern Californians, and Jonathan Blair is not looking forward to the company's internal stability due to this impact.

A few days later, Yang Jie, Jonathan Blair, Governor Davis, Andy Marsch and others appeared in a substation on the street side of Larkin Street in San Francisco.

When Davis saw that the boxes of a dozen or so fuel cell power generation units in the substation were neatly lined up, and now these battery packs had begun to be connected to the power supply network and began to supply stable electricity, and there was almost no sound in these boxes except for the sound of ventilation and exhaust cooling fans.

In the distance stand several large oil storage tanks, filled with hydrogen oil.

At this time, Andy Marsch said to Governor Davis: "Governor Davis, we fuel cell stacks have thought a lot of measures in terms of lightning protection, water resistance, rodent prevention, fire prevention, and electrical safety, and the safety level is very high. ”

Davis nodded: "I have also seen the test and inspection report of your products by the California Fire Protection Association and other parts, and the safety of your products is indeed very high." ”

"Governor Davis, hydrogen is a flammable and explosive dangerous good, and Prager Energy is in such a hurry to launch such a dangerous product as a fuel cell, which is irresponsible to users. Jeffrey Skiling, who was on the side, said with a frown.

This guy Yang Jie didn't invite, but the deputy mayor of San Francisco invited him over, and Yang Jie couldn't drive him away, and he frowned when he heard him impatiently picking on fuel cell products.

Davis glanced at Jeffrey Skiling, but was silent.

"Mr. Jeffrey Skiling, our fuel cell products are very airtight, and there is a hydrogen detection instrument in the product, which can detect hydrogen leakage at any time, and cut off the hydrogen supply if it exceeds a certain concentration. Even if there is a leak, the battery pack box has an exhaust port, and the hydrogen is often discharged immediately, and it will not be mixed with the air, so there is no danger of explosion at all. Even if there is a fire, the pipeline where we transport hydrogen oil has an anti-tempering valve that will stop the spread of the fire and will not produce more serious results!"

Andy Marsch looked at Jeffrey Skiling and frowned and said, "Mr. Jeffrey Skiling, you don't know the skills of our products at all, please don't just make some irresponsible opinions." ”

"You ......" Jeffrey Skilin's eyes widened in anger, "Do you know who I am?!"

"Of course I know who you are, but that doesn't mean you're right, and as an expert in fuel cell technology, it's my responsibility to correct some of your perceptions. To talk about the danger, natural gas and gasoline are more dangerous than hydrogen, consumers are still in a large number of applications, and hydrogen is the lightest gas, the diffusion speed in the air is fast, and the upward diffusion speed can reach almost 20m/s, which is 2 times that of nitrogen and 6 times that of natural gas. Even in a room with poor ventilation, hydrogen leakage in the room will temporarily accumulate in the ceiling, and eventually will be transferred to the corner, and now many factories that use hydrogen usually use hydrogen sensors to detect hydrogen leaks, and the sensitivity of hydrogen sensors is very high, and the degree of safety is very high. ”

"In open space, the diffusion coefficient of hydrogen is 12 times that of gasoline, and from the point of view of danger, the explosion energy of gasoline is 22 times that of the same volume of hydrogen, and when the explosion occurs, because the density of hydrogen is much lower than that of air, the explosion will occur above the gas source, and the explosion of gasoline will be generated around the fuel, and the danger of gasoline is far greater than that of hydrogen, and our company has a large number of test data in this regard. ”

Andy Marsch looked at Jeffrey Skilling and said, "Natural gas is more dangerous than hydrogen, and according to Mr. Jeffrey Skilling, should the U.S. government pass a bill to ban natural gas?"

"You ......"

Jeffrey Skilin's Adam's apple twirled a little, and he looked like he wanted to eat someone, but he couldn't speak.
