Greenhyscale looks to provide CO₂ transparency
Project developers plan to provide customers with detailed information on how ‘green’ the hydrogen it produces is
The 100MW Greenhyscale project in Denmark is developing a system that will tell customers how green the hydrogen they are buying is, according to the project developers. The plant will run on 80MW of directly connected renewables topped up with electricity from the grid when needed. Because Denmark’s electricity grid mix can contain variable rates of coal- and gas-fired generation at any particular time, this means that hydrogen produced by the electrolyser will have a different CO₂ footprint depending on when it was produced. “It’s up to customer to determine how green it needs to be,” says Ander Boje Larsen, CTO of project manager Greenlab, speaking on a recent webinar. 100MW – Plann
