SIMACRO-Samsung C&T to Develop Predictive Digital Twin for Korea’s First Off-Grid Green Hydrogen Facility
SIMACRO has officially entered into an agreement with Samsung C&T to carry out a project focused on building a digital twin for Korea’s first off-grid green hydrogen production facility. This demonstration facility produces hydrogen using 100% renewable energy, directly linked to a solar power plant. It establishes a new benchmark for energy self-sufficient hydrogen production. Moving beyond conventional monitoring systems, this project implements a predictive digital twin powered by AspenTech’s engineering software as a virtualization engine to optimize operations. Central to the project are the following capabilities:
A digital model that tracks structural degradation of electrolyzers
An asset integrity monitoring system designed for safety and operational reliability
A physics-informed/AI–based hybrid digital twin architecture
A scalable interface structure designed for future integration with EMS and LLMs
Application of platform technology based on SOC2 certification and secure architecture
By combining physical models with AI, the project goes beyond basic data visualization: It establishes a next-generation green hydrogen digital infrastructure that simultaneously enhances operational reliability, safety, and predictability. SIMACRO has previously verified the safety of large-scale hydrogen production systems by evaluating dynamic model-based operational control strategies during the scale-up phase of blue hydrogen processes using SMR. In addition, through collaboration with global partners, we have conducted digital modeling and predictive simulations for next-generation climate technologies and processes, including dynamic modeling of RPB (Rotated Packed Bed) systems and carbon capture using novel MOF (Metal-Organic Framework) materials. While green hydrogen, blue hydrogen, and carbon capture may seem like separate technologies, they are ultimately driven by the same fundamental question:
“How can we build safer, more efficient, and more sustainable energy systems?”
Moving forward, SIMACRO will continue to design core infrastructure for the carbon-neutral era through industrial digital twins that integrate physics-based models and AI. We expect this collaboration to serve as a meaningful reference case that presents a new direction for digital twins in the green hydrogen industry.
