3 FAQs about Chemical plant uses EU solar-powered container DC power

Can European wind and solar power be used to produce hydrogen?

The growth of European wind and solar power capacity is associated with increasing electricity curtailment to manage excess generation and ensure safe network operations. Instead, this surplus electricity could be used to produce hydrogen, thereby reducing the need for fossil-fueled hydrogen production in ammonia and refining industries.

Do Ammonia and refinery plants have access to surplus electricity?

(53) Assuming that each ammonia and refinery plant has access to the national surplus electricity proportionally to its hydrogen demand translates into assuming that individual facilities install electrolyzer, battery, and hydrogen storage capacity corresponding to their hydrogen demand.

How much electricity does the EU need to produce hydrogen?

4.1. Scaling Up Electrolytic Hydrogen Production Utilizing Surplus Electricity European electrolysis capacity currently stands at 2.9 GW el (2023). (6) To meet the EU’s ambitious targets to produce 10 Mt H2 /y renewable hydrogen by 2030, an electrolysis capacity of 100–120 GW el is required.
