Government; funding and policy support for clean energy transition, including a focus on hydrogen import and market ramp-up.

Hydrogen produced from renewable electricity sources, considered a critical component for hydrogen's long-term credibility as a clean fuel.

Wind power generation from turbines located in offshore waters, used to produce electricity for the grid.

The process used to produce green hydrogen by splitting water using electricity.

The world's first green hydrogen-to-e-fuel plant, a pilot project aiming for industrial-scale production of synthetic fuels using wind-powered green hydrogen.

A 700 megawatt green hydrogen plant powered by offshore wind energy designed to produce carbon-neutral aviation fuel for Hamburg Airport. The project uniquely captures and utilizes oxygen and waste heat byproducts from electrolysis, selling oxygen to a cement plant and waste heat to a district heating system.

Aviation fuel produced by refining synthetic methanol created from hydrogen (via electrolysis) and captured carbon dioxide from the cement plant. Intended for use at Hamburg Airport to reduce aviation carbon emissions.

Intermediate product created by mixing hydrogen produced via electrolysis with carbon dioxide captured from the cement plant, which is then refined into synthetic kerosene.

Synthetic fuels produced using green hydrogen and captured CO2, intended as a complementary solution for decarbonizing combustion engines and plug-in hybrids.
