- The Holland Hydrogen I plant will be operational in 2025.
- It will have a 200 MW electrolyser producing 60,000 kg of green hydrogen daily.
- The green hydrogen will be transported to Shell Energy and Chemicals Park Rotterdam.
- The plant will help decarbonize the production of gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel.
Project Overview
Yokogawa Electric Corporation has been selected by Shell Plc as the main automation contractor (MAC) for the construction of the Holland Hydrogen I plant in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. This plant will be Europe's largest renewable hydrogen facility once operational in 2025.
Production Capacity
The Holland Hydrogen I plant will feature a 200 megawatts (MW) electrolyser, capable of producing up to 60,000 kilograms of green hydrogen per day. The hydrogen will be generated using electricity sourced from an offshore wind farm.
Decarbonization Efforts
The green hydrogen produced at the plant will be transported via pipeline to the Shell Energy and Chemicals Park Rotterdam. It will replace some of the grey hydrogen currently used in the refinery, contributing to the decarbonization of the facility's production of energy products such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel.
Role of Yokogawa
As the MAC, Yokogawa will optimize operations at the plant by closely integrating its systems and equipment. This integration aims to enhance efficiency and support Shell's decarbonization strategies.
