German energy company Uniper has selected Electric Hydrogen as its exclusive partner to design a 200-MW electrolyzer plant for the large-scale electrolysis within Uniper\u2019s Green Wilhelmshaven project in Northern Germany. Electric Hydrogen began conducting the preliminary front-end engineering design (pre-FEED) work for the project in October of this year. The companies made the partnership announcement on Nov. 18. Uniper\u2019s Green Wilhelmshaven project consists of two major systems: large-scale electrolysis, which will produce green hydrogen, and an import terminal for ammonia. The electrolyzer will be built in Wilhelmshaven on the site of Uniper\u2019s former coal-fired power plant. The ammonia import terminal is planned in the immediate vicinity of the first LNG terminal in the north of Wilhelmshaven, which is operated by a Uniper subsidiary. Together, the two projects could meet a significant quantity of Germany\u2019s projected demand for green hydrogen. Both plants will be connected via pipelines to the German hydrogen backbone and to underground storage facilities in northern Germany. With the Green Wilhelmshaven projects, Uniper aims to transform Wilhelmshaven into a central hub for green hydrogen in Germany. This is also confirmed by the \u201cProject of Common Interest,\u201d or PCI, status granted to both projects. The large-scale electrolysis will use renewable electricity from wind farms, creating zero-carbon green hydrogen gas for Uniper\u2019s industrial customers. Green hydrogen plays a critical role in enabling industries like chemicals, steel, marine and air transport to chart a realistic path to carbon neutrality. Decisive factors in the selection of the electrolysis technology were Electric Hydrogen’s advanced proton exchange membrane electrolysis (PEM) technology and the company\u2019s offering of a fully integrated plant design to minimize hydrogen production costs. Electric Hydrogen\u2019s 100-MW electrolyzer plants are available for deployment in the European Union in 2026. \u201cWe aim to drive the efforts to decarbonize German and European industry. Uniper\u2019s hydrogen project is a cornerstone of our plans to shape the energy transition,\u201d said Susanne Th\u00f6le, director of Hydrogen for Uniper. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to begin the pre-FEED work on this project with Electric Hydrogen, in whom we have found a partner who understands our goals and supports our vision. We want to be the most trusted partner for policymakers, industry and society on how to make Europe\u2019s energy supply secure, affordable and steadily greener.\u201d \u201cUniper is committed to becoming a leader in low-carbon energy,\u201d said Raffi Garabedian, CEO of Electric Hydrogen. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to help them fulfill this mission by bringing our advanced electrolysis technology and low project cost to Wilhelmshaven as their exclusive electrolysis partner. Electric Hydrogen was founded to make the switch from fossil fuels to zero-carbon green hydrogen an economic inevitability. Green Wilhelmshaven is a monumental step toward that goal.\u201d \u2014POWER<\/strong> edited this content, which was supplied by Uniper<\/strong> and Electric Hydrogen<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
