Varanger KraftHydrogen is looking for H2 end-users
Background
The establishment is a part of the Haeolus project and is a collaboration working on producing hydrogen with the use of wind parks. Haeolus is financed by the EU through Horizon 2020. The facility consists of a 2,5 MW PEM electrolyser with 1 tonne/day capacity and is connected to Raggovidda wind park. Raggovidda wind park is in the Varanger peninsula in the extreme North of Europe, far north of the Polar Circle.
H2 production
Haelous project will be testing H2 production at the facility in Berlevåg for 2,5 years. The energy system was installed in May and in June they could announce that the demonstration has finally started. The project will focus on energy storage, grid balancing and energy systems for remote locations, and concurrently utilize the production capacity to deliver compressed H2.
Varanger KraftHydrogens goal is to offer compressed H2 on 20- or 40-feet containers from 2022 and is now looking for potential end-users. Other logistics solutions can be assessed in cooperation with interested parties.
