For the global energy system to be transformed and enable net zero, we need pioneering technologies. To do this, companies must dare take the lead and invest massively in cutting-edge technology. The International Energy Agency (IEA) points out that electrolysis capacity requires significant acceleration to get on track for net zero in 2050. With our SOEC electrolyzer technology Topsoe will help meet that demand and drive the energy transition forward. Our SOEC factory being built in Herning, Denmark is a great example of scaling technology through bold private investment and crucial public funding through the EU’s Innovation Fund. The factory is on track to be operational this year. We’re proud to share that our SOEC test center in Frederikssund delivers strong results in a 2,000-hour demonstration in industrial conditions. This demonstration is an important milestone in developing and scaling SOEC electrolysis technology, as well as in Topsoe’s mission to enable the energy transition by bringing efficient, scalable, and innovative decarbonization technology to market.

I am so proud to have led the collaboration between the hydrogen technologies and industrial decarbonization offices to help make this announcement! Two big things: 1) We are funding a $10 million project who will test a first-of-a-kind integration of high-temperature #electrolysis in a real world steel plant. At scale, this could be the most efficient way to get primary steel production to net zero. 2) We are seeking submissions to fund for pre-FEED studies that look at how #cleanhydrogen can integrate into industrial facilities. This will give companies who might be near one of the seven #hydrogenhubs an idea of how they can benefit from nearby clean hydrogen production and stimulate greater regional demand. So thankful to work with great colleagues like Paul, Felicia R. Lucci, PhD, Rebecca Erwin. And of course, it would not be possible without the leadership of Jesse Adams and Sunita Satyapal. #greensteel #decarbonization #investinginamerica
