Innovative Hydrogen Production Project Approved at Kola NPP in Russia
Key Ideas
- Glavgoskpertiza approves the construction project for a hydrogen production complex at Kola NPP in Russia.
- The facility will produce eco-friendly hydrogen through electrolysis using electricity from the nuclear power plant.
- Russian-made innovative electrolysis installations by NPO Centrotech and Rosenergoatom will be utilized in the project.
- The complex will have a production capacity of 200 normal cubic meters of hydrogen per hour for storage and transportation.
Russia's Glavgoskpertiza has given the green light for the construction of a bench test complex at Kola NPP for hydrogen production. The project aims to use ecologically clean hydrogen generated through electrolysis powered by the nuclear plant, avoiding carbon dioxide emissions. With an allocated space of over 8,000 square meters, the facility will incorporate modern engineering systems. NPO Centrotech, among other Russian-made equipment providers, will supply innovative electrolysis installations for the project. The complex, designed by Rosenergoatom and Research Centre Alfa Expert Diagnostics, will have a production capacity of 200 normal cubic meters of hydrogen per hour, focusing on production, storage, and transportation of hydrogen.
