Facility will be powered by the Hollandse Kust offshore windfarm, with first production targeted for 2024
Shell has contracted Thyssenkrupp Uhde Chlorine Engineers to supply a 200MW alkaline electrolysis (AE) facility next to the port of Rotterdam. Thyssenkrupp Uhde Chlorine Engineers—a joint venture between steel firm Thyssenkrupp and technology company Industrie De Nora—will engineer, procure and fabricate the plant based on its 20MW AE module. “We are looking forward to supporting building a major hydrogen hub in central Europe and contributing to Europe’s transition to green energy,” says Christoph Noeres, head of green hydrogen at Thyssenkrupp Uhde Chlorine Engineers. “With our large-scale standard module size, we will further strengthen Shell’s hydrogen strategy.” Shell’s Holland Hydrogen
