RWE commissions 14-megawatt pilot electrolyser in Lingen, Germany

London, August 12, 2024, (Oilandgaspress) ––Federal Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Action Robert Habeck, Lower Saxony’s Minister President Stephan Weil as well as Lower Saxony’s Minister for the Environment, Energy and Climate Protection were present when RWE commissioned its pilot electrolyser plant in Lingen.

The facility on the site of RWE’s Emsland gas-fired power plant has a capacity of 14 megawatts (MW). It can generate up to 270 kilogrammes of green hydrogen per hour using electricity from renewable sources. Featuring two different electrolysis technologies, the pilot plant is to provide valuable insights for developing future industrial-scale hydrogen facilities. The first large commercial electrolyser plant is already being built only metres away. As part of the GET H2 Nukleus project, a 100-MW electrolyser is to be commissioned there by 2025, with its capacity to be expanded to 300 MW by 2027.
