Green Hydrogen Systems today updated its participation in the H2goesRail project with Lhyfe.
“We are excited to finally shed more light on the project with Lhyfe, which was announced back in 2020! Green Hydrogen Systems’ electrolysis equipment will be used in the pioneering H2goesRail project and the produced hydrogen will fuel a Siemens train. The goal of this project is to build hydrogen-powered trains to replace the fleet’s 1,300 diesel trains by 2050.”
The order includes the supply of one GHS HyProvide® A90 electrolyser with a capacity of 0,5 MW for the production of green hydrogen from renewable electricity. The HyProvide® electrolyser has an annual production capacity of approximately 71,000kg and will be delivered as a turnkey solution in a 20 ft container at the site in Tübingen, Germany. The site will be built in 2024.
The project will be yet another solid opportunity for demonstrating Green Hydrogen System’s pressurised alkaline electrolysis equipment as the most stable and cost-efficient electrolysis technology and technology that operates fully dynamically with the variable load from renewable electricity sources. The goal of the project is to replace diesel trains in Germany, and the learnings from this initiative have the potential to accelerate the energy transition for rail transportation in Europe and globally.
“As a country with a highly advanced hydrogen research landscape, Germany has the potential to become a global leader in the associated green hydrogen technologies. At Green Hydrogen Systems we are working on multiple projects in Germany, and we are thrilled that our electrolysis technology was selected for yet another one which will contribute to Germany’s energy transition,” says Søren Rydbirk, CCO, Green Hydrogen Systems
