Evonik and VoltH2's Green Hydrogen Partnership in Delfzijl Chemical Park
Key Ideas
  • Evonik partners with VoltH2 to build a 50 MW electrolyzer in Delfzijl to produce green hydrogen, aiming for sustainability and carbon emissions reduction.
  • VoltH2 will supply a significant portion of Evonik's hydrogen demand, starting operations by the end of 2027, with plans for a tube trailer filling station.
  • The collaboration in Delfzijl sets an example of industrial collaboration for a greener future, emphasizing the importance of sustainable energy optimization.
  • Both companies believe in the feasibility of significant carbon emission reductions through green hydrogen production and showcase the importance of sector-wide partnerships.
Evonik has entered into a partnership with Dutch company VoltH2 to enhance green hydrogen production at the Delfzijl chemical park in the Netherlands. VoltH2 will construct a 50 MW electrolyzer near Evonik’s hydrogen peroxide plant, with operations expected to start by the end of 2027. This initiative marks the first green hydrogen water electrolysis plant at an industrial scale in the North of the Netherlands. Evonik will transition a substantial part of its hydrogen sourcing to this electrolyzer, supporting its sustainability goals. While their remaining hydrogen needs will be met by conventional methods for now, the collaboration is set to ensure an uninterrupted hydrogen supply until green hydrogen reaches full capacity. Additionally, VoltH2 will establish a tube trailer filling station on Evonik’s premises to cater to its other clients. The partnership highlights the commitment of both companies to driving industry towards greener practices and reducing carbon emissions. The joint efforts aim to showcase the benefits of sustainable electricity and green hydrogen utilization in a large-scale industrial setting. Leaders from Evonik and VoltH2 express optimism about achieving significant carbon emission reductions through this collaboration and hope to inspire similar partnerships globally in the future.
