- HH2E is investing approximately USD 2.13 billion in green hydrogen facilities in Lubmin and Thierbach.
- The Lubmin facility will feature a 50 MW alkaline electrolyser and a 200 MWh battery.
- Each facility will create over 150 jobs and support local economies.
- HH2E plans to establish up to ten green hydrogen plants across Germany by 2030.
Investment and Development
HH2E AG is advancing Germany's energy transition with two major green hydrogen production facilities in Lubmin and Thierbach, representing an investment of approximately USD 2.13 billion. These projects aim to expand green hydrogen infrastructure and promote sustainable energy solutions in Europe.
Strategic Locations
The Lubmin facility, located on the German Baltic coast, will leverage offshore and onshore wind farms and solar parks. It will feature a 50 MW alkaline electrolyser and a 200 MWh high-capacity battery, ensuring continuous green hydrogen production. Thierbach, near Borna in Saxony, will host a similar facility, aiding the region's transition from coal mining to sustainable energy production.
Economic and Environmental Impact
Each facility is expected to create over 150 jobs, supporting local economies and driving structural changes towards greener industries. Both plants will produce green hydrogen using 100% renewable energy, contributing to Germany’s goal of achieving a climate-neutral energy supply by 2050. The projects also focus on minimizing environmental impact and promoting biodiversity, with advanced electrolysis technology that repurposes waste heat locally.
European Hydrogen Network
By 2030, HH2E plans to establish up to ten green hydrogen plants across Germany, with Lubmin and Thierbach being the first two major projects. These plants will be part of a nearly 10,000 km hydrogen core network by 2032, enhancing energy connectivity across Europe and integrating renewable hydrogen production with existing and new energy grids.
