RWE has announced a significant milestone in its GET H2 Nukleus project by commissioning a 300-MW green hydrogen production plant at its gas-fired power station in Lingen, Germany. The plant will consist of three electrolysers, each with a capacity of 100 MW, with Sunfire and Bilfinger playing crucial roles in the project's development. Supported by funding from the German government and the State of Lower Saxony, the plant is set for completion in 2027, with the initial 100 MW expected to be operational by 2025. Dr. Sopna Sury, COO Hydrogen at RWE, highlighted the project's importance for companies transitioning to green hydrogen, aiming to meet market demands. Nils Aldag, CEO of Sunfire, expressed pride in their partnership with RWE, while Bilfinger Group CEO Dr. Thomas Schulz underlined the plant's role in the energy system's transformation. This initiative aligns with RWE's collaboration with grid operators Nowega and OGE to supply green hydrogen to industrial consumers in Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia, showcasing a holistic approach to advancing green energy production.
