Equinor and Linde to develop Dutch blue hydrogen project
Facility at Eemshaven will reform Norwegian gas and supply industrial consumers via Dutch and German pipeline networks
Norwegian state-owned energy company Equinor and global industrial gases firm Linde have agreed to cooperate on the development of a large-scale blue hydrogen project at the port of Eemshaven in northern Holland. The project, called H2M Eemshaven, aims to start production in 2028 with a planned capacity of 210,000t/yr. It will be connected to onshore hydrogen pipelines planned in both the Netherlands and Germany, with demand expected from industrial sectors including steel, chemicals and power generation. The project will take Norwegian gas for reforming to low-carbon hydrogen. More than 95% of the CO₂ will be captured and stored permanently under the seabed offshore Norway. “Together
