THE HAGUE, Netherlands, July 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- René Peters, Business Director Gas Technologies TNO and initiator of the North Sea Energy Program: "PosHYdon is the ultimate example of system integration in the North Sea. In many studies, hydrogen is considered the missing link in the energy transition, with many talking about all the opportunities. But here, right off the coast of Scheveningen, it will actually take place. PosHYdon will teach us a lot about the next steps that need to be taken towards safe, large-scale green hydrogen production at sea. Offshore green hydrogen production will enable large-scale wind farms to be developed far out at sea. Wind energy is then directly converted to green hydrogen and can be transported through the existing gas infrastructure. As a result, offshore wind projects can be realized faster at significantly lower costs for society. I am therefore very happy that we can now progress with PosHYdon."

Key Points: 
  • PosHYdon is the world's first offshore green hydrogen pilot on a working platform.
  • PosHYdon will teach us a lot about the next steps that need to be taken towards safe, large-scale green hydrogen production at sea.
