GET H2 Nucleus: Partners sign realization contracts and pave the way for integrated hydrogen projects
- bp, Evonik, Nowega, OGE and RWE want to create a hydrogen infrastructure between Lingen and Gelsenkirchen, Germany, which will combine transport, production and green hydrogen.
- The building blocks are expected to be operational in the course of 2025.
- Timing and implementation remain dependent on short-term notification from the EU for funding as an IPCEI (Important Project of Common European Interest).
The companies bp, Evonik, Nowega, OGE and RWE have now signed the
signed the implementation contracts for the GET H2 Nukleus project.
project. The companies are thus paving the way for the implementation of the first integrated IPCEI hydrogen project as part of the initiative GET H2 and for the connection of further projects within the IPCEI funding.
The aim of the projects is to create an important starting point for the hydrogen economy in the Emsland, Münsterland and Ruhr regions.
For the hydrogen economy that will emerge in Germany in the coming years and will play a in Germany in the coming years and make a significant contribution to achieving the climate targets. With implementation in the regions is intended to lay the foundation for connecting further producers and and customers of green hydrogen from industry and small and medium-sized enterprises.
This makes the building blocks of the GET H2 Nucleus an important economic factor for the regions as well as for Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia. In the exchange within the within the GET H2 initiative, links to several other projects have already been initiated.
Agreements overcome chicken-and-egg problem
The contracts that have now been signed regulate the conversion and construction of the hydrogen pipelines, as well as the mutual rights and obligations of the contracting parties until the start of operation of the building blocks of the GET H2 nucleus. In addition, necessary for the cooperation between the project partners in the future market and the for the already planned extensions of the system as well as for the integration of additional of further players have been laid down in the contracts, as the network is to be made available be available on a non-discriminatory basis.
"With the rules agreed in the contracts, the partners overcome the chicken- egg problem and can simultaneously proceed with the projects for generation, transport and offtake of the green hydrogen," the project partners said. It is important that the companies involved do not suffer any disadvantages as a result of their early involvement. For EU notification of the requested IPCEI funding is still required for implementation. Grants by the EU is required. "With these contracts, we are creating the possibility, to continue preparing the individual building blocks, despite the fact that decisions are still pending," the underline the companies involved.
Die Tinte ist trocken! Die Partner des GET H2 Nukleus haben jetzt die Realisierungsverträge für das Projekt unterschrieben. 2025 sollen die Bausteine betriebsbereit sein.
Mit einer Infrastruktur für #Wasserstoff von #Lingen nach #Gelsenkirchen wollen bp, Evonik, Nowega GmbH, OGE und RWE Transport, Erzeugung und Abnahme von grünem Wasserstoff verbindet. Die Verträge ebnen den Weg für die Umsetzung eines der ersten integrierten Wasserstoffprojekte im Rahmen der IPCEI-Förderung. „Mit den Regeln, die in den Verträgen vereinbart sind, überwinden die Partner das Henne-Ei-Problem und können gleichzeitig mit den Projekten zu Erzeugung, Transport und Abnahme des grünen Wasserstoffs fortfahren“, so die Projektpartner.
Das Ziel ist es, im #Emsland, #Münsterland und #Ruhrgebiet einen wichtigen Ausgangspunkt für die Wasserstoffwirtschaft zu schaffen, die in den kommenden Jahren in Deutschland entstehen und maßgeblich zur Erreichung der Klimaziele beitragen soll. Mit der Umsetzung soll in den Regionen die Grundlage für den Anschluss weiterer Erzeuger und Abnehmer von grünem Wasserstoff aus Industrie und Mittelstand geschaffen werden. Für die Umsetzung ist aber weiterhin eine kurzfristige Notifizierung der beantragten #IPCEI-Förderungen durch die #EU erforderlich.
