- Project developed in
collaboration with DEWA, Expo 2020 Dubai
- Operational experience from the
project will be invaluable
- Operational data from green
hydrogen electrolysis to be displayed at Expo 2020
- Advances the sustainable energy
industry in the region
Siemens Energy, in collaboration with
Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) and Expo 2020 Dubai, has
inaugurated the first industrial scale, solar-driven green hydrogen facility in
the Middle East and North Africa. Located at DEWA’s Outdoor Testing Facility of
the Research and Development (R&D) Centre at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al
Maktoum Solar Park in Dubai, this trailblazing Green Hydrogen Project serves as
a major milestone in the advancement of the sustainable energy industry in the
region.
- Siemens Energy and Mubadala join strategic
partnership to accelerate green hydrogen capabilities in Abu Dhabi
- Siemens Energy to collaborate with
Masdar and partners on developing clean hydrogen fuels
Siemens Energy is advancing the
development of green hydrogen ecosystems in the UAE. Around the Abu Dhabi
Sustainability Week, two Memorandums of Understanding (MoU) were signed with
Mubadala Investment Company as well as with Masdar and other partners to
jointly drive UAE’s green hydrogen sector and the production of synthetic
fuels.
- Projects target a total investment of approximately EUR 120 million over five years in developments leading to a fully integrated offshore wind-to-hydrogen solution
- Projects are first major step to develop an industrial-scale system capable of harvesting green hydrogen from offshore wind
- Developments will enable decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors such as transport and heavy industry
- Implementation within the framework of the ideas competition "Hydrogen Republic of Germany" of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research
To reach the
Paris Agreement goals, the world will need vast amounts of green hydrogen and
wind will provide a large portion of the power needed for its production.
Siemens Gamesa and Siemens Energy announced today that they are joining forces combining
their ongoing wind to hydrogen developments to address one of the major challenges of our decade —
decarbonizing the economy to solve the climate crisis. The companies are contributing with their
developments to an innovative solution that fully integrates an electrolyzer
into an offshore wind turbine as a single synchronized system to directly
produce green hydrogen. The companies intend to provide a full-scale offshore
demonstration of the solution by 2025/2026. The German Federal Ministry of
Education and Research announced today that the developments can be implemented
as part of the ideas competition "Hydrogen Republic of Germany".
- World’s first integrated commercial
plant for producing climate-neutral fuel being built in Chile
- Innovations from Germany to
industrialize synthetic fuels and decarbonize the mobility sector
- German Economy Ministry
supports beacon project as part of national hydrogen strategy
- Porsche is planning to use e-fuels – initially on race
courses and in vehicle trials, prospectively also in serial production sports
cars
Siemens Energy, joined by sports car maker Porsche and a lineup of international companies, is developing and implementing a pilot project in Chile that is expected to yield the world’s first integrated, commercial, industrial-scale plant for making synthetic climate-neutral fuels (e-fuels). In the pilot phase, around 130,000 liters of e-fuels will be produced as early as 2022. In two further phases, capacity is then to be increased to about 55 million liters of e-fuels a year by 2024, and around 550 million liters of e-fuels by 2026. Porsche will be the primary customer for the green fuel. Other partners in the project are the energy firm AME and the petroleum company ENAP from Chile and Italian energy company Enel.
- Memorandum of Understanding for
joint holistic hydrogen system for rail
- Siemens Energy and Siemens
Mobility decarbonize the mobility sector
Siemens Energy
and Siemens Mobility have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly
develop and offer hydrogen systems for trains. The agreement was signed by
Albrecht Neumann, CEO of Rolling Stock at Siemens Mobility and Armin
Schnettler, Executive Vice President (EVP) of New Energy Business at Siemens
Energy. The project aims at jointly developing holistic hydrogen solutions for
rail transport and offering them to customers to promote the hydrogen economy
in Germany and Europe and support decarbonization in the mobility sector.
- Evonik and Siemens Energy put pilot plant into operations
- Artificial photosynthesis closes carbon dioxide cycle
- The Federal Ministry of Education and Research is funding the various project stages with more than €6 million
Evonik and Siemens Energy today commissioned a pilot plant sponsored by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) that uses carbon dioxide and water to produce chemicals. The necessary energy is supplied by electricity from renewable sources. The pilot plant is located in Marl, in the northern Ruhr area, and its innovative technology of artificial photosynthesis should contribute to the success of the energy revolution. It is an essential part of the Rheticus I and II research projects, which are sponsored by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) with a total of 6.3 million euros.
