This is the second green hydrogen order for ANDRITZ from Germany within the last 12 months and marks an important step towards becoming a leading industrial partner in the development and implementation of large-scale green hydrogen plants.
E.ON Hydrogen, part of E.ON Group, one of Europe’s largest operators of energy networks and energy infrastructure, is committed to advancing the hydrogen economy to support the transition to sustainable energy. The company plans to build a plant with a capacity of 20 MW in the Essen harbor area to produce 2,300 tons of green hydrogen per year. The hydrogen produced will serve transportation companies and industries in the vicinity of the harbor.
The contract includes feasibility and safety studies for the complete plant, including hydrogen production, compression, storage and trailer loading bays. The study is expected to be completed in 2024.
