- VoltH2 secured a 30,000 m2 plot in Terneuzen for a 25MW green hydrogen plant.
- The plant will produce 3,600 tonnes of green hydrogen annually.
- Initial investment is estimated at €35-40 million.
- The site is accessible by road, rail, and waterway.
Project Overview
VoltH2 has signed a cooperation agreement with North Sea Port Authority for a 30,000 m2 industrial plot in Terneuzen, the Netherlands. The company is planning a 25MW green hydrogen plant with tube-trailer loading and distribution facilities.
Production Capacity
The initial plant will use proven, commercially available technology to produce up to 3,600 tonnes of green hydrogen annually. Future expansions could potentially double or triple this capacity.
Investment and Location
The first phase of the project requires an estimated investment of €35-40 million. The site is strategically located in the Axelse Vlakte in Westdorpe, Terneuzen, with access by road, rail, and waterway to support supply and distribution.
Synergies and Opportunities
The location offers significant local demand for hydrogen consumption and potential heat offtake opportunities. Nearby projects include a Bio LNG producer and two Bio Steam and Bio Ethanol production projects, creating a potential advanced fuels production cluster in the Netherlands.
Regional Impact
The Benelux region, particularly its ports and harbors, plays a leading role in hydrogen usage. Governments in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Flanders are supporting the transition to low-carbon alternatives, aiming to meet EU targets by 2050.
North Sea Port's Role
North Sea Port is focusing on the energy transition, and the new green hydrogen plant in Terneuzen will reinforce its position as a hydrogen hub in Western Europe, offering numerous possibilities for companies in the industrial park Axelse Vlakte.
