HyCC contracts McPhy and Technip Energies for green hydrogen
project Djewels
- State-of-the-art green hydrogen plant to be constructed by
Technip Energies and operated by HyCC
- The plant will use innovative “Augmented McLyzer” technology
from McPhy
- The plant will have a production capacity of 3,000 tons per
year, reducing CO2 emissions by up to 27,000 tons per year in
support of the European climate goals
- The innovative project is supported by a consortium of European
companies that are willing and able to lead in the realization of
green hydrogen projects
Djewels B.V., 100% owned by HyCC, has
contracted McPhy for the electrolyser supply and Technip Energies
for the design and construction of the planned 20 megawatt green
hydrogen plant. The contract is subject to a final investment
decision for the project, which HyCC aims to take later this
year.
Djewels will be a state-of-art electrolysis
facility located in Delfzijl, the Netherlands. The plant will be
operated by HyCC using electrolysers from McPhy to produce up to
3,000 tons of green hydrogen per year from renewable power and
water. The green hydrogen can be used by OCI Methanol Europe for
the production of renewable methanol to reduce CO2-emissions by up
to 27,000 tons per year. Other companies supporting the
project include Gasunie, DeNora and Hinicio.
Djewels will be the first plant at this scale
using “Augmented McLyzer” technology from McPhy with higher current
density, providing flexibility in production with reduced spatial
requirements. This is an important development to enable the
scale-up of green hydrogen production in support of the
decarbonization of European industries and climate goals.
Djewels is a flagship project for the Province
of Groningen and the wider Hydrogen Valley in the Northern
Netherlands, supporting sustainable development of regional
industries. Its development was supported by the regional
Waddenfonds. The project also receives support from the Clean
Hydrogen Partnership (former FCH-JU) and has applied for a grant
from the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs to support the
deployment of this innovative technology.
Marcel GALJEE, Managing Director of HyCC,
says: “Green hydrogen production needs to significantly scale-up in
the coming years if we want to reach the European climate goals for
2030. This means we need to deploy innovative technology at scale
to gain practical experience. The work of Technip Energies and
technology from McPhy allow us to do exactly that.”
Jean-Baptiste LUCAS, Chief Executive Officer
of McPhy, states: “Collaborating with a major industrial
company for an emblematic green hydrogen production project in
Europe represents a major step forward for McPhy and the green
hydrogen sector. There are significant projects set up over
the last few years, now entering their implementation phase, and we
have the resources to seize these growth opportunities."
About DJEWELS
Djewels will demonstrate the operational
readiness of a 20 MW electrolyser for the production of
renewable methanol in real-life industrial and commercial
conditions. It will help bring the technology from TRL 7 to TRL 8
and lay the foundations for the scale-up of innovate green
hydrogen technology. The project is supported by HyCC, Gasunie,
OCI, McpHy, DeNora and Hinicio and will be located in Delfzijl
Chemical Park in the Netherlands, where HyCC’s
shareholder Nobian already operated an existing chlor-alkali
electrolysis facility.
The project is supported by the Dutch
Waddenfonds and received funding from the Clean Hydrogen
partnership (former FCH-JU) under grant agreement No 826089. The
Clean Hydrogen Partnership receives support from the European
Union’s Horizon 2020 research innovation programme and the
Netherlands, Italy, France, and Belgium.
