In India, BioEnergy Times reported that project partners Luxcara GmbH and Hamburger Energiewerke announced that construction has begun on a 100-MW electrolyzer at the former Moorburg coal-fired power plant in Hamburg, Germany.
The Hamburg Green Hydrogen Hub (HGHH) is slated to start operations in the second half of 2027. Once commissioned, it is expected to play a key role in decarbonizing the local port and industrial sectors. The plant will produce 10,000 tons of green hydrogen each year, which will be supplied through the Hamburg Hydrogen Industry Network (HH-WIN) and a planned trailer loading station, according to the report.
The project received funding approval from federal and state governments last summer. Since then, major construction contracts have been finalized. Siemens Energy will provide the electrolyzer under a contract awarded in September 2024, while Kraftanlagen Energies & Services signed an agreement in October 2025 to build the project’s infrastructure, it added.
