In Germany, Reuters reported that Siemens Energy will build a 280-megawatt (MW) green hydrogen electrolysis system for Northern German utility EWE, which is expected to begin operating in 2027.
The German government recently handed $4.98 billion of EU-approved subsidies to a series of projects to supply secure and sustainable hydrogen on its road to net-zero carbon emissions, the report stated.
The plant in the city of Emden will provide up to 26,000 metric tons of green hydrogen a year, replacing around 800,000 tons of carbon dioxide annually.
EWE chose Siemens Energy after a 12-month selection process. The stacks will be produced at Siemens Energy’s Berlin site. EWE is separately developing related transport and storage elements, the report added.
