FRIEDRICH VORWERK, a company with a strong background in large-scale plant construction, has secured a contract from the Norwegian energy group Statkraft to develop a 10 MW electrolysis plant in Emden, Lower Saxony, Germany. The plant aims to produce green hydrogen using proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis technology, with an estimated completion date of 2027. As part of the project, the hydrogen will be integrated into the existing infrastructure of Statkraft's power plant in Emden and supplied to the regional transport sector through hydrogen refueling stations. This endeavor is one of several hydrogen initiatives underway, supported by the recent approval of a hydrogen core network by the Federal Network Agency in Germany. The network, spanning over 9,000 km, is slated to establish a robust hydrogen transport infrastructure by 2025, facilitating the connection between hydrogen production facilities and major consumers. This development is crucial for Germany's hydrogen transition. With its comprehensive service and technology portfolio, coupled with extensive experience in pipeline and plant construction, FRIEDRICH VORWERK foresees a substantial uptick in demand within the hydrogen sector. The company's involvement in projects like the Emden electrolysis plant underscores its commitment to advancing green hydrogen production and fostering sustainable energy practices.
