European Energy is going to start delivering green hydrogen to Port Esbjerg starting from the first half of 2023 from its production facilities in Esbjerg.
The supply of green hydrogen to Port Esbjerg will be produced at European Energy’s wind farm in Måde near Esbjerg.
What is more, Esbjerg municipality recently approved the building of the new PtX-facility in Måde near Esbjerg. The power used to fuel the electrolysis-proces in the PtX-facility will primarily be from two test wind turbines in Esbjerg set up by European Energy.
This project demonstrates sector coupling in practice and will give us invaluable knowledge of the day-to-day operations of a PtX-facility. This will be invaluable in our steps to further optimize the large number of projects we are developing
says René Alcaraz Frederiksen, Head of Project Economics & Optimization, Power to X.
In addition, CEO Dennis Jul Pedersen, Port Esbjerg, noted that “there is an increasing demand for renewable based energy from vessels calling our port. This green hydrogen fuel cell technology will add an important capacity to our onshore power supply grid. Furthermore, this is a mobile unit enabling us to deploy the unit in any port section where needed.”
