At a glance
  • A 200 MW electrolyzer is planned by 2026, expanding to 500 MW by 2028.
  • Phase I will produce up to 30,000 tons of green hydrogen annually, increasing to 80,000 tons in Phase II.
  • The H2-Hub Lubmin connects to the Flow Hydrogen Core Network.
  • A floating import terminal will begin operations in 2026, producing 30,000 tons of green hydrogen annually.

Project Overview

Deutsche ReGas has completed the Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) phase for the H2-Hub Lubmin project. The project includes the construction of a 200 MW electrolyzer by the end of 2026, with plans to expand to 500 MW by 2028. Phase I aims to produce up to 30,000 tons of green hydrogen annually, while Phase II will increase this capacity to 80,000 tons per year.

Infrastructure and Connectivity

The H2-Hub Lubmin is directly connected to the Flow Hydrogen Core Network, ensuring a reliable and secure supply of hydrogen to customers in Eastern Germany and industrial hubs in the southwest. Deutsche ReGas acquired the land for the production facility in the summer of 2022 and expanded it further in 2023.

Future Developments

In addition to the H2-Hub Lubmin, Deutsche ReGas has announced plans for the H2-Import Terminal Lubmin, the world’s first floating import terminal for hydrogen. This terminal is set to begin operations in 2026 and will produce around 30,000 tons of green hydrogen annually.
