Höegh Evi Leading the Clean Energy Charge with Rebranding and Hydrogen Focus
Key Ideas
  • Höegh LNG is rebranding itself to Höegh Evi to reflect its expansion into hydrogen, ammonia, and carbon capture and storage, emphasizing the shift towards clean energy solutions.
  • The company's new focus on 'energy vector infrastructure' signifies its commitment to balancing current energy security needs with future clean energy aspirations.
  • Höegh Evi plans to leverage its extensive experience in LNG to lead the hydrogen charge by establishing a groundbreaking floating facility in Germany capable of producing green hydrogen from green ammonia.
  • The H2-Import-Terminal in Lubmin is set to be operational by early 2026 and is part of Germany's initiative to diversify its energy sources and reduce reliance on Russian natural gas imports.
Höegh LNG, a prominent marine energy infrastructure company, is undergoing a transformative rebranding to Höegh Evi, signaling a strategic shift towards clean energy solutions like hydrogen and ammonia. The renaming reflects the company's commitment to expanding beyond its traditional focus on floating LNG installations to embrace emerging technologies such as hydrogen production and carbon capture and storage. Höegh Evi's President and CEO, Erik Nyheim, highlighted the importance of adapting to evolving energy demands and emphasized the company's role in supporting customers with both current energy security requirements and future clean energy goals. With a strong foundation built on five decades of LNG expertise, particularly in floating storage and regasification units, Höegh Evi is now at the forefront of the hydrogen transition. A significant milestone in this journey is the collaboration with Deutsche ReGas to establish the H2-Import-Terminal in Lubmin, Germany. This innovative floating facility is designed to import green ammonia and convert it into green hydrogen, contributing to Germany's ambitious clean energy targets. The terminal, expected to commence operations by early 2026, will showcase cutting-edge technology capable of producing approximately 30,000 tonnes of hydrogen annually. This initiative aligns with Germany's strategic efforts to enhance energy security and reduce dependency on Russian natural gas following geopolitical disruptions. By venturing into hydrogen infrastructure, Höegh Evi is poised to play a pivotal role in advancing sustainable energy solutions and driving the energy transition towards a greener future.
