BP's Lingen Green Hydrogen Project: Accelerating the Energy Transition in Germany
Key Ideas
  • BP approves the final investment decision for the Lingen Green Hydrogen project, a key step in developing green hydrogen production at an industrial scale in Europe.
  • The project aims to produce 11,000 tons of green hydrogen annually, supporting decarbonization in BP's refineries and among industrial customers, with backing from the IPCEI program.
  • The integration of offshore wind power into the project will ensure truly green hydrogen production, aligning with BP's strategy to reduce emissions and meet climate goals.
  • Construction of the Lingen Green Hydrogen plant is set to start in 2025, with commissioning planned for 2027, forming part of BP's broader hydrogen and CCS strategy for the next decade.
BP plc has taken a significant step towards the energy transition by approving the final investment decision for the Lingen Green Hydrogen project in Lingen, Germany. This project, part of a 100 MW initiative, aims to be BP's largest green hydrogen production facility, producing 11,000 tons of green hydrogen annually to support industrial decarbonization in the region. Supported by the IPCEI program, the project will integrate offshore wind power to ensure the green production of hydrogen. The CEO of BP Europa SE, Patrick Wendeler, and Felipe Arbelaez, BP's Senior Vice President for Hydrogen and CCS, have expressed enthusiasm for the project, highlighting its importance in driving the hydrogen economy and supporting decarbonization efforts. Construction is scheduled to start in 2025, with commissioning planned for 2027, contributing to BP's broader strategy of investing in hydrogen and CCS projects globally in the next decade.
