Stuttgart Set to Lead the Way with Green Hydrogen Production Plant
Key Ideas
  • Stadwerke Stuttgart has secured approval to build a hydrogen production plant as part of the Green Hydrogen Hub Stuttgart project, set to produce 1,000 tons of hydrogen annually.
  • The plant will utilize four electrolyzers powered by renewable energy sources and be connected to a pipeline network for distribution to customers like buses, vehicles, and research institutions.
  • By leveraging technologies like digital twins and AI control, the plant aims to optimize efficiency and meet the rising demand for green hydrogen, contributing to a greener energy future.
  • Stuttgart's position as a hub for mobility research and development, with companies like Mercedes and Porsche active in the region, will benefit from this new facility, set to begin construction in early 2025.
Stadwerke Stuttgart in Germany has received approval to construct a hydrogen production plant in Stuttgart, as part of the Green Hydrogen Hub Stuttgart project. This significant development highlights a move towards a greener energy future. The plant, scheduled to start construction in early 2025, will have the capacity to produce up to 1,000 tons of hydrogen annually. This production will be powered by four electrolyzers exclusively using renewable energy sources. The hydrogen produced will be distributed through a pipeline network to various customers, including buses, heavy-duty vehicles, and research institutions. The transportation of hydrogen will be facilitated by the GeNeSiS H2 pipeline, funded by the EU and the Baden-Württemberg Ministry for the Environment and Climate. The plant will employ advanced technologies such as digital twins and AI control to enhance production efficiency and cater to the increasing demand for green hydrogen. This initiative is expected to benefit Stuttgart, known for its focus on mobility research and development, with prominent companies like Mercedes, Porsche, and Bosch already active in the area. The construction of the plant is projected to start in early 2025, with operations planned to commence by late 2026.
