EU Innovation Fund grants €108M to RWE’s waste-to-hydrogen project FUREC

Green Car Congress

For comparison: This is equivalent to the output of a 700-megawatt offshore wind farm with coupled electrolyzers. The CO 2 released during the hydrogen production is captured and can be stored or possibly used as a raw material by industry in the future. The plant is expected to produce 54,000 tonnes of hydrogen per year.
