Along with 18 industry partners, DNV is launching a new Joint Industry Project (JIP) on 16 February to enhance the standardization for reliable, safe and cost-efficient hydrogen production systems that use renewable energy-powered electrolysis to produce green hydrogen.
DNV believes that hydrogen can play a significant role in decarbonizing the world’s energy supply, unlocking more potential of renewable energy and is receiving increasing focus as the energy transition moves at pace.
In fact, Kim Sandgaard-Mørk, Executive Vice President for Renewables Certification at DNV, said that DNV predicts that hydrogen will move from approximately 1.9% of the mix of energy carriers in 2040 to 5.0% in 2050.
We are tackling this challenge by joining forces with major industry partners to work towards a new certification scheme and industry best practice for electrolysers which will facilitate successful water electrolysis projects
explained Axel Dombrowski, Director Innovation & Digitalisation for Renewables Certification at DNV.
Project partners come from various industrial sectors like Electrolyser and Wind Turbine Manufacturers, Developers of Renewable Assets, Energy, Chemistry and Engineering Companies, while the JIP will be open for more partners to join until mid-April 2022.
Partners currently joining the JIP are:
- BP
