Tyssenkrupp to consider hydrogen production
started a feasibility study to promote climate-friendly hydrogen.
The steel producer
Energy company Equinor and the natural gas transmission system operator Open Grid Europe have started a joint feasibility study into the decarbonised production of “blue” hydrogen, based on natural gas.
Looking for an up-to-date picture of the global Fuel Cell industry? Real-time business intelligence provider Fygen covers all Fuel Cell players globally, especially including China. Fuel Cell makers as well as suppliers for materials, components, H2 Production/Electrolyzers, H2 Storage Solutions, Sub-Systems, Fueling Stations and System Integrators. PEM (Proton-Exchange Membrane), SOFC (Solid Oxide Fuel Cell) and other systems are covered in the database.
The study will also look into ways to supply tyssenkrupp’s steelworks in Duisburg, the largest in Germany, with this hydrogen.
The starting point of the study is the production of hydrogen from natural gas and the permanent offshore storage of the resulting carbon dioxide,
possibly in the context of the Equinor-operated storage project
“Northern Lights” on the Norwegian shelf.
In the study will be several options for the recovery and transport of hydrogen to the
Open Grid Europe will share their knowledge about the transmission and transport of gases into the study.
“We see hydrogen as the key to a climate-friendly future.
We therefore also welcome the intention of the Federal Government, to launch a nationwide hydrogen strategy, “said
“In the long term, our goal is to use renewable hydrogen energy. ”
