Air Liquide and TotalEnergies are investing over €1bn in two large-scale green hydrogen projects in the Netherlands, aiming to cut industrial carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 450,000 metric tonnes annually.

The ‘ELYgator’ project, a 200MW (megawatt) electrolyser in Rotterdam, will produce up to 23,000 tonnes of renewable and low-carbon hydrogen per year from 2027, powered by offshore wind. The second project, a 250MW electrolyser in Zeeland, will produce up to 30,000 tonnes annually under similar conditions from 2029.

“These projects mark a major step in scaling up renewable hydrogen production in Europe,” said François Jackow, CEO of Air Liquide. “Hydrogen is key to decarbonising industry and heavy mobility.”

Both projects will supply hydrogen to hard-to-abate industries such as refining, chemicals, and heavy transport, replacing fossil-based fuels.
