- Frankfurt site certified under ISCC EU RFNBO for green hydrogen: up to 6,000 t/yr produced via chlor-alkali electrolysis using renewable electricity.
- Nobian became the first European chemical company to offer a full portfolio of ISCC PLUS-certified chloromethanes in 2025.
- Nobian previously obtained RFNBO certification for green hydrogen in Rotterdam, extending its network of certified production sites.
- The certifications facilitate industry compliance with EU 2030 decarbonization targets by expanding supply of traceable renewable hydrogen.
RFNBO certification in Frankfurt
Nobian’s Frankfurt site received ISCC EU RFNBO certification for green hydrogen, enabling up to 6,000 tonnes/year produced via chlor‑alkali electrolysis powered entirely by renewable electricity.
Certification requirements and customer use
Under the ISCC EU framework, certified RFNBO hydrogen requires full traceability of renewable electricity, compliance with emissions thresholds and transparent documentation across the production chain, providing a regulation‑aligned input for decarbonization in chemicals, mobility and other energy‑intensive sectors.
Network expansion and market impact
The Frankfurt certification extends Nobian’s network of certified sites following earlier RFNBO certification in Rotterdam and complements the company’s 2025 offering of ISCC PLUS‑certified chloromethanes, strengthening supply of traceable renewable hydrogen and supporting industry efforts to meet EU 2030 decarbonization targets.
Outlook
Nobian plans to work with regional partners, industry stakeholders, policy makers and regulators to expand its low‑carbon RFNBO portfolio and help establish a broader hydrogen ecosystem across Germany and Europe.
