The H2-Hub Lubmin project plans a 200 MW electrolyzer by 2026, expanding to 500 MW by 2028, producing up to 80,000 tons of green hydrogen annually. A floating import terminal will start in 2026.
Two new green hydrogen facilities in Lubmin and Thierbach will optimize renewable energy, create jobs, and support Germany's climate goals, contributing to a European hydrogen network by 2030.
The project in Lubmin aims for 100 MW capacity by 2025, scalable to 1 GW by 2030, producing up to 60,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually, with a total investment potentially exceeding 1 billion euros.
