Fortum subsidiary Uniper and the Dutch Port of Rotterdam are considering large-scale production of green hydrogen at a plant in the Maasvlakte area of what is Europe’s largest harbour.
A feasibility study will be completed this summer for a hydrogen plant on Uniper’s site by 2025 with a capacity of 100MW that could be expanded to 500MW, the utility said.
Düsseldorf-based Uniper was formed by spinning off the fossil fuel assets of German utility E.ON in 2016, and later was bought by Finnish utility Fortum. While still heavily fossil and nuclear-based, Uniper has announced to close or convert its coal-fired power plants in Europe by 2025 at the latest, and become carbon neutral in Europe by 2035.
