TotalEnergies and Air Liquide Partner to Produce Green Hydrogen in the Netherlands
Key Ideas
  • TotalEnergies and Air Liquide are developing two green hydrogen projects in the Netherlands, aiming to produce 45,000 tons of green hydrogen annually from renewable sources.
  • The projects will significantly reduce CO2 emissions from TotalEnergies' refineries in Belgium and the Netherlands, contributing to Europe's renewable energy goals for transport.
  • The joint venture between TotalEnergies and Air Liquide involves a €600 million investment to build a 250 MW electrolyzer near the Zeeland refinery, set to be operational by 2029.
  • The partnership signifies a step towards TotalEnergies' goal to decarbonize hydrogen consumption at its European refineries by 2030, with support from renewable energy sources and government subsidies.
TotalEnergies and Air Liquide have joined forces to develop two green hydrogen projects in the Netherlands as part of TotalEnergies' 2030 goal to decarbonize hydrogen at its European refineries. The projects, expected to produce around 45,000 tons of green hydrogen annually, will primarily utilize renewable power from the OranjeWind offshore wind farm. The collaboration includes a joint venture to operate a 250 MW electrolyzer near the Zeeland refinery, with an investment of approximately €600 million. This initiative aims to reduce CO2 emissions at TotalEnergies' refineries in Belgium and the Netherlands by up to 450,000 tons per year, aligning with Europe's renewable energy targets for the transport sector. Additionally, a tolling agreement has been signed for the ELYgator electrolyzer project in Maasvlakte, where TotalEnergies will supply renewable electricity to Air Liquide for green hydrogen production. These projects signify a significant step towards decarbonization, showcasing a commitment to sustainable practices and renewable energy sources to achieve carbon neutrality in the energy sector.
