We are using green hydrogen to decarbonize hard-to-abate industries.
Not just the largest electrolyzer in Europe, but one of the world's largest too! Our giga-scale electrolyzer, which runs on renewable electricity, will seamlessly integrate into our Boden plant. Green hydrogen has the potential to enable significant emissions reductions in various heavy industries. We are starting with iron and steel, with the hydrogen plant in Boden generating the green hydrogen needed to supply 5 million tonnes of high-quality steel to the market by 2030, paving the way for reducing 300 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions by 2040.
Hydrogen is not only the most common element in the universe, it is also a versatile energy carrier that is used in many industries. It's a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas with numerous uses and significant potential and can be produced from all kinds of energy sources, from fossil to renewable. Green hydrogen, in particular, has the potential to decarbonize heavy industries.
The hydrogen we produce is green because it relies on 100% renewable electricity. When produced via electrolysis using renewable electricity from sources like wind, solar, or hydropower, it emits zero CO₂ emissions.
Hydrogen has the potential to play a big role in the climate transition, enabling the decarbonization of sectors that are difficult to electrify. But is all hydrogen created equal? You may have heard of blue hydrogen, gray hydrogen, or green hydrogen. In this context, the color refers to the source. Green hydrogen, which we will make in our plant in Boden, currently represents a miniscule share of global production. But with its unique ability to produce zero emissions, green hydrogen is a key enabler of industrial decarbonization.
