OMV Petrom receives first electrolyser module for Petrobrazi green hydrogen production
In Romania, OMV Petrom announced the delivery of the first electrolyser module for the production of green hydrogen at the Petrobrazi refinery, to be installed and connected to the power network. This is an important milestone in the construction of the new unit that will enable the production of sustainable fuels, SAF (sustainable aviation fuel) and HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil or renewable diesel).
The first electrolyser module has been delivered to Petrobrazi refinery, while the remaining three modules of the 20 MW project will be delivered in the following months.
The equipment is supplied by Neuman & Esser from Germany, while the site construction, unloading, fabrication of construction elements and integration of the modules within Petrobrazi refinery are being carried out by Kraftanlagen Romania in partnership with local suppliers.
The 20 MW green hydrogen plant will have the capacity to produce approximately 3,000 tons of green hydrogen per year to support the production of biofuels at Petrobrazi.
