REFHYNE 2
Country
Germany
REFHYNE 2 will install a 100 MW PEM electrolyser at the Shell Rheinland Energy and Chemicals Park in Germany, using renewable power to produce green hydrogen and oxygen, which will be fed-in to the existing refinery networks to decarbonise refinery operations. The electrolyser will be based on a state of the art pre-engineered 10MW electrolyser trains..
