Offshore Trials Begin for Dolphyn Hydrogen Process in Pembroke Port
Key Ideas
  • Offshore trials have commenced in Pembroke Port, South Wales, for ERM's Dolphyn process, utilizing offshore wind to produce hydrogen.
  • The process integrates electrolysis, desalination, and hydrogen production on a floating wind platform, enabling low-carbon hydrogen production and transportation to shore for various uses.
  • Supported by the UK government and receiving over £8M in funding, the Dolphyn Hydrogen project aims to contribute to the energy transition and create green economy jobs.
  • Company executives emphasize the importance of these trials as a significant step towards deploying affordable, low-carbon hydrogen at a scale to drive progress towards a sustainable future.
Offshore trials have commenced in Pembroke Port, South Wales, for ERM's Dolphyn Hydrogen process, which utilizes electricity from floating offshore wind to produce hydrogen. The process combines electrolysis, desalination, and hydrogen production on a floating wind platform, offering a pathway to low-carbon energy generation without grid constraints. Hydrogen produced is transported to shore for various uses like power generation, transport, and heating. The UK government, through the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, has supported the development with funding of over £8M. The project has received backing from devolved governments in Wales and Scotland as well. Company executives highlight the importance of these trials in advancing the production of low-carbon hydrogen and driving the transition to a sustainable future.
