ArcelorMittal Germany Receives Electrolyzer Unit for Green Hydrogen Project in Bremen
Key Ideas
  • ArcelorMittal Germany acquires an electrolyzer unit from the Netherlands for the HyBit green hydrogen project in Bremen.
  • The project, in partnership with EWE AG and Swb AG, aims to reduce carbon emissions in steelmaking and initiate sector decarbonization.
  • The electrolyzer unit, using renewable energy, will split desalinated water into oxygen and hydrogen for green hydrogen production.
  • Green hydrogen produced will be utilized for pig iron production at the Bremen plant and can also be distributed to other locations like hydrogen filling stations.
ArcelorMittal Germany has taken a significant step in the realm of green hydrogen by acquiring an electrolyzer unit for its HyBit project in Bremen. The unit, supplied by Plug Power in the Netherlands, consists of two modules and is crucial for the electrolysis process that will split desalinated water into oxygen and hydrogen using renewable resources. This initiative, conducted in collaboration with EWE AG and Swb AG, marks a move towards reducing carbon emissions in steelmaking and starting the decarbonization process in the sector. The green hydrogen produced will play a key role in pig iron production at the Bremen plant while also being available for distribution to other sites including hydrogen filling stations. Overall, this development signifies a positive stride towards cleaner and more sustainable practices in the steel industry.
