Dutch consortium advances offshore green hydrogen plans in North Sea
In Singapore, Splash reported that Hydrogen of Dutch Origin (H2DO) has kicked off a study for a 30-50MW offshore green hydrogen concept in the Dutch part of the North Sea.
The TSE-funded ‘Offshore Midsized Green Hydrogen Feasibility and Concept Study’ will demonstrate how offshore hydrogen production can unlock more offshore wind while reinforcing Europe’s strategic energy autonomy, according to the report.
The aim of the study is to bring the overall project to a maturity level that enables a direct move into the next phase, preparation for a follow‑on demonstrator. The goal is to have the project operational in 2031, it added.
According to H2DO, domestically produced green hydrogen from North Sea wind can help reduce dependence on imported fossil fuels and vulnerable supply chains.
“By taking green hydrogen production offshore and close to the wind source, we turn a grid challenge into an energy security opportunity,” said H2DO’s managing partner Patrice Hijsterborg.
