Ceres inks contract with Shell for green hydrogen project
The developer continues the second phase of its collaboration with Shell as incentives rise for the development of commercially scalable applications of green hydrogen
UK-based Ceres Power Holdings has announced plans to continue its collaboration with Shell as they work to develop a pressurised module design for solid oxide electrolysers (SOECs) that can be scaled to hundreds of megawatts. If successful, this could play an important role in accelerating the decarbonisation of emissions-intensive industries. Via integration with industrial plants, it could be used for synthetic fuels, ammonia and green steel, paving the way for production of sustainable future fuels. Ceres’ contract with Shell aims to build on the data obtained from the use of its technology at Shell’s R&D facility in Bengaluru, India. “Our strategic collaboration with Shell continues
