Key Ideas
- TotalEnergies signs a 15-year agreement with RWE's Lingen electrolyser plant for green hydrogen supply to its Saxony-Anhalt refinery, aiming to reduce CO2 emissions by replacing grey hydrogen.
- RWE's GET H2 Nukleus project, featuring 300MW electrolyser plant, will supply hydrogen to TotalEnergies via Germany's hydrogen core network, contributing to decarbonization efforts.
- The long-term contract signifies a step towards achieving TotalEnergies' goal of cutting oil and gas emissions by 40% by 2030, showcasing a commitment to green and renewable hydrogen.
- Despite a three-year offtake gap until 2030, the agreement highlights the growing interest and investment in hydrogen infrastructure and its potential impact on reducing carbon footprint.
TotalEnergies has secured a 15-year supply agreement for green hydrogen from RWE's Lingen electrolyser plant to support its Saxony-Anhalt refinery operations, aiming to reduce CO2 emissions. The hydrogen will be transported through Germany's hydrogen core network from 2030 onwards. RWE's GET H2 Nukleus project, featuring a 300MW electrolyser plant, is set to contribute to this supply chain, with hydrogen being stored in Gronau-Epe. The agreement reflects TotalEnergies' broader strategy to decarbonize its refineries, showcasing a commitment to green and renewable hydrogen. While the deal leaves a three-year gap until 2030, it demonstrates the positive momentum in hydrogen infrastructure development and its role in achieving sustainability goals.
