TES and EWE sign electrolyser deal
Two firms want to build 500MW electrolyser as part of plan to make Wilhelmshaven a hydrogen hub
Green hydrogen developer Tree Energy Solutions (TES) and German utility EWE have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to build a 500MW electrolyser in TES’ Green Energy Hub at Wilhelmshaven. Belgium-based TES has already raised €65mn ($66mn) from a group of investors, including banking group HSBC and energy company Eon, to build a clean energy import hub at the northern German port. The terminal will initially import LNG before switching to synthetic methane for conversion to green hydrogen. The electrolyser is to be installed and operated from 2028 with a further unit planned eventually to take the total capacity to 1GW. The hub could theoretically accommodate up to 2GW of electrolys
