Global Energy Storage (GES) and Provaris Energy have joined forces to develop a gaseous hydrogen import facility at the GES terminal in Rotterdam.
The partnership between GES and Provaris signifies a pivotal step towards establishing a robust infrastructure for importing green hydrogen on a large scale. By leveraging GES’s extensive terminal assets and Provaris’s innovative compressed hydrogen supply chain, the project aims to accelerate the availability of green molecules for industrial users in Europe.
As part of the collaboration, GES and Provaris will conduct a comprehensive prefeasibility study to assess the technical and economic feasibility of the proposed hydrogen import facility. This study will evaluate various aspects, including berthing and unloading procedures, storage capabilities, grid connections, and environmental considerations.
Provaris Energy’s H2Neo compressed hydrogen carriers represent a cutting-edge solution for transporting hydrogen over long distances. With advanced features and a competitive edge over traditional chemical carriers, the H2Neo carriers offer a sustainable alternative for bulk-scale import of green hydrogen from regional supply sources across Europe and beyond.
In addition to evaluating technical aspects, the prefeasibility study will address crucial factors such as emissions reduction, risk management, and safety protocols. Ensuring compliance with environmental standards and implementing robust safety measures are essential priorities to mitigate potential risks associated with hydrogen transportation and storage.
