In Massachusetts, Uniper said it has selected Electric Hydrogen as its exclusive partner to design a 200 megawatt (MW) electrolyzer plant for the large-scale electrolysis within Uniper’s Green Wilhelmshaven project in Northern Germany. Electric Hydrogen began conducting the preliminary front-end engineering design (“pre-FEED”) work for the project in October 2024. Uniper’s Green Wilhelmshaven project consists of two major systems: large-scale electrolysis, which will produce green hydrogen, and an import terminal for ammonia. The electrolyzer will be built in Wilhelmshaven on the site of Uniper’s former coal-fired power plant. The ammonia import terminal is planned in the immediate vicinity of the first LNG terminal in the north of Wilhelmshaven, which is operated by a Uniper subsidiary. “We aim to drive the efforts to decarbonize German and European industry. Uniper’s hydrogen project is a cornerstone of our plans to shape the energy transition,” said Susanne Thöle, Director of Hydrogen for Uniper. “We’re excited to begin the pre-FEED work on this project with Electric Hydrogen, in whom we have found a partner who understands our goals and supports our vision. We want to be the most trusted partner for policymakers, industry and society on how to make Europe’s energy supply secure, affordable and steadily greener.”
