H2Carrier receives AiP from DNV for P2XFloater floating hydrogen and ammonia facility

Green Car Congress

The concept is based on proven floating production, storage and off-take technologies combined with an e-control system capable of balancing renewable electricity feedstock through a fully integrated PEM and Haber-Bosch system. Green hydrogen is produced by pumping seawater onboard, purifying the water and feeding it to electrolyzers.

Statoil to build the world’s first floating wind farm: Hywind Scotland

Green Car Congress

The decision triggers investments of around NOK 2 billion (US$238 million), realizing a 60-70% cost reduction per MW from the Hywind demo project in Norway. The pilot park will cover around 4 square kilometres, at a water depth of 95-120 meters. With fixed turbines, offshore wind is optimal for 20-50 meters water depth.
