Hydrogen production with PEM electrolysis

World class technology

Example: Energie Park Mainz

Energy storage

Example: Shell REFHYNE project

• Largest P2G plant, converting wind power

into green hydrogen through electrolysis

• On-site production and storage of GH2

• 800 kg storage (25 MWh)

• Running since 2015

• 10 MW Electrolysis system for H2 generation

(modular approach 5 x 2MW)

• H2 purification to 5.0 purity, suitable for

load and grid balancing

• Phase II to be initiated soon – 100 MW

concept

Industry feedstock

Full power, low carbon

RefineriesUsing clean hydrogen in the

production of clean fuels

will decarbonize refining

processes and reduce

emissions.

Green Powerfuels and

MethanolHydrogen enables the use of

renewable energy to produce

powerfuels; it significantly

reduces the carbon footprint

of methanol production.

SteelClean hydrogen can be used

to replace coal and NG

during the steel production

process, substantially

reducing the carbon

footprint.

AmmoniaAmmonia can be produced

sustainably and directly

from clean hydrogen.

Trusted supplier of heavy industries, such as steel, chemicals, synthetic fuels and refining. Linde is well equipped to support

the transition to a low carbon production.
