HyCC a joint venture of the European electrochemical company Nobian and Macquarie’s Green Investment Group (GIG), has unveiled plans to build a green hydrogen plant in the Amsterdam port. The plant will be launched at the port area by 2027.
HyCC and the Port of Amsterdam have completed a first feasibility study, and the 500 MW project, called H2era, will be further developed in the coming months during the pre-FEED study phase.
Discussions are currently underway with various parties to use the hydrogen to decarbonise industries in the region, but HyCC said the hydrogen could also be used for transport.
The partners said that in the future, the new plant could also be linked to a national pipeline network to enable the exchange of hydrogen between industrial clusters.
HyCC is also working with the Port of Amsterdam and Tata Steel on a 100 MW plant at the site of Tata Steel IJmuiden, called project H2ermes.
