After over a decade of research and development, China has launched its own large cryogenic refrigeration equipment, operating between 20K and 2K temperatures and capable of handling hundreds to thousands of watts. This breakthrough allows for domestic production of devices crucial for applications in aerospace engineering, hydrogen energy, and large scientific installations like the Beijing Electron Positron Collider and Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility. These systems, essential for cooling with liquid helium and superfluid helium, represent a significant step towards technological independence in the cryogenic field. We see cryogenic applications as a sizable demand driver for helium over the next decade.
