Sweden’s Green Hydrogen Initiative: A Sustainable Industrial Cluster
Key Ideas
  • Lhyfe, OX2, and Velarion collaborate to establish a large green hydrogen-based industrial cluster in Sweden's Ånge municipality, leveraging wind power for hydrogen production and carbon-neutral fertilizer manufacturing.
  • OX2 plans to develop a wind farm generating 1.4 TWh annually to power a 300 MW electrolyzer by Lhyfe, producing up to 100 tons of green hydrogen daily.
  • Velarion will construct a carbon-neutral fertilizer plant using green hydrogen to produce green ammonia, aiming to significantly reduce carbon emissions in the fertilizer production process.
  • The project aims to enhance local industry sustainability and attract further industrial investments in Ånge, with the feasibility study, permitting, and financial decisions being key factors for implementation.
Lhyfe, OX2, and Velarion have united to establish a pioneering green hydrogen-based industrial cluster in Sweden's Ånge municipality. The initiative seeks to utilize wind power for green hydrogen production and subsequently produce carbon-neutral fertilizer. OX2's wind farm project, with a capacity of 1.4 TWh, is set to power a 300 MW electrolyzer by Lhyfe, capable of generating up to 100 tons of green hydrogen daily. Velarion will play a crucial role by constructing a state-of-the-art carbon-neutral fertilizer plant within the cluster, using green hydrogen to produce green ammonia and significantly decrease carbon emissions in fertilizer manufacturing. Anders Nilsson of OX2 expressed excitement about the project's potential to promote sustainable local industry and attract further industrial establishments in Ånge. The project, still in the conceptual phase, awaits the results of a feasibility study, permitting, and financial decisions for implementation. Lhyfe, known for the world's first large-scale wind-powered green hydrogen plant, brings its expertise as a green hydrogen producer to the collaboration. OX2, a renewable energy developer operating in multiple European markets and Australia, contributes its experience with large-scale energy projects. Velarion Group's focus on eco-friendly urea and ammonia production aligns with the overall goal of achieving a carbon-neutral future by reducing agriculture's carbon footprint. The establishment of this green hydrogen industrial cluster marks a significant step towards sustainable industrial development and green technology innovation in Sweden.
