Industriepark Höchst

EIB funds a lithium project in Germany, enhancing Europe's lithium supply chain, reducing imports, and supporting sustainable energy and transport initiatives.

The project uses geothermal brine to produce lithium and renewable energy, reducing carbon footprint. It partners with Nobian for electrolysis expertise and aims to supply EV batteries in Europe.

They aim to scale a new lithium conversion process, enhancing Europe's battery supply chain and sustainability, while seeking strategic partners for global expansion.

ERA ONE produces 2,500 tonnes of carbon-neutral e-Fuels annually, aiding EU climate goals. It uses CO2 and hydrogen, with strong financial backing for scaling production.

The plant recycles 8,000 tons of CO₂ annually into 2,500 tons of synthetic fuels, using a catalyst that enhances efficiency and stability for sustainable fuel production.

€70m funding will boost e-Fuel production, aiding aviation decarbonization and supporting EU climate goals through innovative reactor technology and strategic partnerships.

Production will end by 2025 due to economic reasons. Jobs will be retained until then. The company will source from third-party suppliers and focus on next-gen solutions with lower application rates.

Starting in 2024, the plant will produce 2,500 tons of e-fuels annually using CO2 and green hydrogen, contributing to climate goals and advancing sustainable mobility in aviation and shipping.

A new warehouse at Industriepark Höchst offers advanced safety features, extensive digitalization, and temperature-controlled storage, enhancing logistics and meeting high demand in the Rhine-Main Region.

The first hydrogen train for the Taunus system was presented, marking a step towards zero-emission mobility. The fleet will start operating in December, replacing diesel trains and reducing local emissions.
