The project would be powered by offshore wind
RWE and Neptune award contracts for Dutch offshore project
Siemens Gamesa, H2Sea and Enersea win contracts to design green hydrogen development linked to Dutch North Sea offshore wind
Germany energy company RWE and UK independent oil and gas producer Neptune Energy have awarded the first technical contracts as part of their joint H2opzee offshore green hydrogen project in the Dutch North Sea. The 300-500MW electrolyser project, expected to start operating in 2029, aims to bring green hydrogen produced from an offshore windfarm to shore via an existing pipeline. The companies have selected turbine manufacturer Siemens Gamesa to conceptualise the project’s wind turbine generator system. They have also awarded the offshore platform design and engineering concept contract to Dutch offshore hydrogen specialist H2Sea and the pipeline design deal to Dutch offshore engineering co
