Germany's ministerial envoy for international hydrogen projects, Jürgen Friedrich, highlighted Ireland's opportunity to supply Germany and other European countries with green hydrogen sourced from offshore wind energy on the Irish west coast. The German plan to decarbonize its economy includes investing €19 billion in a hydrogen grid to support energy-intensive industries. The collaboration between Ireland and Germany aims to repurpose existing infrastructure, like the gas network and interconnectors, to transport hydrogen energy. Scotland also plans to export green hydrogen via offshore wind, showcasing the potential for cooperation in the region. Proposed projects off the Irish west coast, such as Valentia Island, Achill Island, and the Aran Islands, aim to utilize floating platforms to convert offshore wind into hydrogen. These projects not only promise energy sustainability but also offer economic benefits to local communities. With successful trials of floating wind turbine technology in the North Sea, Ireland is poised to contribute significantly to Europe's green hydrogen economy.
