Located at Sines Refinery, the electrolyser is set to begin production in 2026, delivering up to 15,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually and becoming one of the “first” operational units of its scale in Europe.
Atome must sign a binding offtake agreement and EPC contract and finalise lending agreements to secure the funds.
Just five years ago, bp planned to cut its oil and gas production by 40% by 2030, while ramping up renewables investments.
Sarah Kimpton, Vice-President and low carbon lead, UK and Ireland, Energy Systems at DNV, highlights the challenges facing the UK in meeting its carbon capture and clean hydrogen goals.
Once operational, Plug’s total liquid hydrogen production capacity will increase to 39 tonnes per day.
Uniper and its project partner EWE expect the electrolyser to produce around 2,700 tonnes of green hydrogen per year in its first phase.
It has also said it will soon provide updates on its 2.2GW NEOM green hydrogen plant and Louisiana blue hydrogen project.
“Importing green iron from our trading partners and allies to supplement the feed to UK and EU electric arc furnaces is the most obvious opportunity that is simply not getting publicly discussed.”
Accelera’s Andreas Lippert warns that green hydrogen can only scale meaningfully if policy hurdles, offtake uncertainty, and additionality constraints are addressed.
