Infrastructure hurdles hold back hydrogen FIDs – Worley

The need to de-risk supply chains, lack of a tradeable price and the problem of common infrastructure all contribute to lack of FIDs in the hydrogen sector, engineering firm tells Hydrogen Economist

The hydrogen project pipeline may be booming, but FIDs are relatively few and far between. Three main challenges are holding projects back, says Hans Dieter Hermes, vice-president for hydrogen at engineering firm Worley, which has advised on more than 250 hydrogen developments. The first major challenge is building up and de-risking the supply chain. “A green hydrogen project will need its own pipelines, its own port access and its own transmission lines—not to mention all the wind and solar capacity. A 1GW [green hydrogen] project requires a significant amount of raw material, so there is a logistic challenge,” Hermes tells Hydrogen Economist, noting that a project of that size would need 6
