European Energy has entered a balancing and optimization partnership with Centrica Energy for the Måde green hydrogen facility at Port Esbjerg. Under this agreement, Centrica will manage power output from two on-site wind turbines, directing surplus renewable energy to hydrogen production. The Måde facility is powered by 12 MW of electrolysis capacity, supported by two wind turbines at the Måde Wind Turbine Test Center, with a combined output of 16 MW. The renewable electricity from these turbines will enable the production of approximately 1,500 tonnes of green hydrogen annually. European Energy has also arranged hydrogen offtake agreements with Port Esbjerg and a global industrial gas supplier. Additionally, the excess heat from the hydrogen production process will be repurposed for local district heating, exemplifying effective sector integration across electricity, fuel, and heating. https://lnkd.in/dE6Z5xbv #greenhydrogen #greenh2 #greenfuture

Europe's first green hydrogen facility powered by wind turbines ◾Centrica Energy and European Energy have signed a balancing and optimisation agreement for the Måde green hydrogen facility located at Port Esbjerg. ◾ Under the agreement, Centrica Energy will manage power production from co-located wind turbines, designating excess power production to green hydrogen production. ◾Powering the 12MW green hydrogen facility are two wind turbines, part of the Måde Wind Turbine Test Center, developed by European Energy with a total installed capacity of 16MW. The turbines will provide renewable electricity, which is used to produce green hydrogen through electrolysis with demineralised water. ◾Expected to produce approximately 1,500 tonnes of green hydrogen every year, European Energy has secured an agreement with Port Esbjerg and a world-class industrial gases company for the offtake from the facility. ◾As the production of hydrogen is a heat-intensive process, the excess heat from production will be fed into the local district heating network, demonstrating sector coupling across the electricity, fuel, and heating domains. ◾The agreement also marks a milestone in Centrica Energy’s strategy to manage a growing volume of renewable and flexible assets across European markets. Commenting on the significant of the agreement, Kristian Gjerløv-Juel, Vice President of Renewable Energy Trading & Optimisation at Centrica Energy said: ◾“Succeeding with the green transition requires using all the tools at our disposal – that of course includes electrification, but also the need to develop the solutions needed to decarbonise energy consumption in sectors where electrification falls short”.

The push towards carbon neutrality gains momentum with wind power at the forefront, achieving a landmark 830 GW capacity in 2021, predominantly from onshore installations. This surge is supported by significant national policies, notably China's 14th Five-Year Plan and the US Inflation Reduction Act, aiming for substantial increases in renewable energy production. The challenge of wind power's intermittency highlights the critical role of long-duration energy storage (LDES) technologies, with hydrogen energy storage (HES) showing promise for its capacity and discharge duration advantages. This study proposes a pioneering bi-level collaborative optimization model for shared hydrogen energy storage within wind farm clusters, focusing on cost-sharing, benefit distribution, and operational efficiency. By integrating wind power with HES, the model aims to address energy storage challenges and capitalize on economic and market opportunities, marking a significant step towards sustainable and efficient renewable energy utilization. The initiative underscores a strategic approach to enhancing wind power consumption and operational profitability, steering the global energy sector towards a more sustainable future. https://lnkd.in/ggE8tttM #Energy #RenewableEnergy #SustainableEnergy #IP #VC #Patents #DeepTech #HydrogenStorage

Japan’s leading oil and gas E&P company, INPEX, is making a significant leap by investing $1.25 billion (200 billion yen) through 2030 in Australian renewable projects. This strategic move aims to create a green hydrogen export hub while decarbonising their flagship Ichthys natural gas and LNG project. Beyond Australia, INPEX sets to leverage the knowledge and technology from renewable projects to support Japan’s energy transition through geothermal energy, offshore wind and green hydrogen production.

Power-to-Gas (P2G) is a technology that converts renewable energy into a storable form of energy, such as hydrogen or methane. P2G is becoming an increasingly important technology for integrating renewable energy sources into the grid and reducing carbon emissions from the energy sector. According to market research reports, the global power-to-gas market size is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 20% for the forecast period of 2022 to 2030. This growth is driven by factors such as increasing demand for renewable energy sources, declining costs of renewable energy technologies, and government incentives for the adoption of low-carbon energy sources. #PowerToGas #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #SustainableTech #CleanEnergy #GreenEnergy #GasEnergy #SouthKorea #EnergyMarket #CarbonReduction #TechInnovation #EnergySolutions #SustainableEnergy #RenewableTech #FutureOfEnergy #EnergyStorage
