Advancements in Green Hydrogen Production in the North Sea
Recent studies focus on hydrogen production systems integrating offshore platforms, with a projected capex of £1.56 billion. These initiatives leverage existing infrastructure, aiming to enhance green hydrogen capabilities in the North Sea and Germany.

A Phase 2 study has outlined a hydrogen production system for North Sea conditions, estimating a capex of £1.56 billion (US$2.09 billion). Key technologies include the Bosch ELY1250 PEM stack and a customized Balance of Stack design by Veolia Westgarth.
In Germany, projects like H2-Demo Global Tech aim to repurpose wind turbine bases for hydrogen production, with plans to scale from 10 MW to 1 GW. The AquaPrimus project is developing a modular nearshore platform for testing hydrogen technologies, which will support future offshore production zones. The integration of these projects may lead to significant advancements in offshore hydrogen production and energy system connectivity.
