Hydrogen production takes system to new levels

Hydrogen production takes system to new levels Green hydrogen from offshore wind energy at an industrial scale using electrolysis Putting the brakes on climate change and meeting the challenges of the energy transition is now more urgent than ever. An experienced team of energy experts from Tractebel Engineering GmbH and offshore engineers from Tractebel Overdick GmbH are therefore developing a unique concept for an offshore platform. This makes it possible to produce environmentally friendly “green” hydrogen from offshore wind energy at an industrial scale using electrolysis. Delivering up to 400 MW, this kind of plant exceeds the output of previous technologies many times over. It could already be put into practice today, for example in the North Sea. The innovative offshore platform can enable a number of tasks to be solved simultaneously. The proportion of “green” hydrogen (H 2 ) in the energy mix can be increased on a CO 2 -neutral basis. In addition, the wide range ...
