Firan is a Netherlands-based energy infrastructure company that develops, finances, builds, and operates open-access networks for heat, electricity, and molecules such as hydrogen, biogas, and CO₂. It collaborates with public authorities, utilities, and industrial sites to realize shared cable and pipeline systems that connect producers and users of sustainable energy.
For the chemical and process industries, Firan designs and operates multi-commodity infrastructures—including hydrogen distribution, CO₂ transport, and steam/heat grids—supporting energy integration, electrification, and decarbonization at industrial clusters and business parks. Its activities span feasibility studies and system design through permitting, construction, asset management, and long-term operation, enabling reliable connections for emerging hydrogen and other low‑carbon applications.
Import terminals, LOHC and electrolysers advance; pipeline and local distribution are planned, but policy, financing and coordination still limit rollout.
Lhyfe's hydrogen powers the GROHW project, testing hydrogen boilers for CO₂ reduction. A 200MW project in Delfzijl is planned, aiming for 2030 operation.
