Black & Veatch advances green hydrogen production in Indonesia

November 9, 2023 |

In Indonesia, Black & Veatch said it has conducted a feasibility study for Augustus Global Investment (AGI) on the generation of green hydrogen in Indonesia.

The project envisions green hydrogen production using electrolyzers powered by grid-supplied renewable energy, the firm said.

Black & Veatch provided a plant configuration and technology analysis and order-of-magnitude cost estimates for hydrogen generation and storage. The study finds that the project can be technically and economically feasible and has the potential to significantly contribute to Indonesia’s energy transition.

“With Indonesia’s vast energy and renewable resources including geothermal energy, there is great potential for this project to be a catalyst in creating a long-term hydrogen economy in Indonesia over this next decade,” said Narsingh Chaudhary, President, Asia Pacific and India, Black & Veatch.

The proposed green hydrogen production plant would be built in the Arun Lhokseumawe Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in the Aceh province of Indonesia. The plant is expected to produce 98.5 tons of hydrogen per day (TPD) and have a 300-megawatt (MW) capacity.
