Denmark Breaks Ground on Europe's Largest Green Hydrogen Production Facility

The new 1GW electrolyser facility will produce enough green hydrogen to power 100,000 homes annually and create 500 new jobs.

Denmark Breaks Ground on Europe's Largest Green Hydrogen Production Facility

Denmark has inaugurated the world's largest green hydrogen production facility, featuring an impressive 1.3 GW electrolyser capacity. This state-of-the-art plant represents a quantum leap in renewable hydrogen production and positions Denmark as a leader in the global hydrogen economy.

Facility Specifications

The facility utilizes cutting-edge electrolyser technology with 90% efficiency, powered entirely by offshore wind energy. It can produce up to 365,000 tons of green hydrogen annually, enough to fuel thousands of vehicles and industrial processes. Learn about our advanced electrolyser solutions.

The plant incorporates the latest hydrogen storage innovations, allowing it to balance production with demand and provide grid stabilization services. This flexibility is crucial for integrating large-scale renewable energy into the electricity system.

Economic and Environmental Impact

The facility is expected to create over 3,000 direct and indirect jobs while reducing Denmark's annual CO2 emissions by 1.2 million tons. It will supply hydrogen to various sectors, including the growing fleet of hydrogen trucks in Europe and local industrial users.

Denmark's achievement demonstrates the viability of large-scale green hydrogen production and is inspiring similar projects worldwide. The facility's design is being studied for replication as part of Europe's expanding hydrogen infrastructure. Our project development services can help you plan similar facilities.

International Collaboration

The project has attracted interest from countries pursuing their own hydrogen strategies, including parties to the Japan-Australia hydrogen trade agreement. Denmark is sharing technological expertise and operational best practices to accelerate global adoption.

This facility exemplifies how green hydrogen can decarbonize heavy industry while creating economic opportunities and advancing the rapidly growing global hydrogen market. Contact us to discuss how we can support your hydrogen projects.
