Enterprize studies Brazil offshore wind-to-hydrogen projects
Coupling offshore wind with electrolysis can position Rio Grande do Norte as South American green hydrogen hub, says developer
Singapore-based renewable energy company Enterprize Energy has signed an agreement with the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Norte to identify and develop opportunities for offshore wind, green hydrogen and green ammonia projects off the country’s northern coastline. Under the agreement, Enterprize will identify multi-gigawatt offshore wind projects and assess the viability of coupling wind farms with desalination and green hydrogen production hubs for both local distribution and export to global markets. “Advances in wind-driven electrolysis should enable Rio Grande do Norte to become a centre for green, zero-carbon hydrogen and ammonia production in South America” Hatton, Enterprize
