Groningen Seaports: Hydrogen hub of Europe. Groningen Seaports is the port authority for the port of Delfzijl, Eemshaven and the adjoining industrial sites. We provide the complete package of port services to industrial and commercial clients. In addition to this, the Eemshaven plays a central role in the development of the energy-related industry.
In this capacity, Groningen Seaports supports and strengthens the production of green hydrogen. There are multiple hydrogen projects in development within the Delfzijl and Eemshaven area. These are projects relating to the construction of electrolysers and hydrogen plants, the creation of specific port facilities, the development of a plastic pipe system ('backbone'), but also the use of hydrogen in public transport and the development of hydrogen filling stations. Groningen Seaports is therefore fully committed to innovation and offers space and facilities for test centres, start-ups, scale-ups, pilot and demo plants.
Europe's biggest green hydrogen project starts in Groningen. A consortium of Gasunie, Groningen Seaports, Shell Nederland, RWE and Equinor is working on the realisation of the NortH2 project: the production of green hydrogen using electricity generated by a gigantic offshore wind farm. The amount of green hydrogen produced, initially at Eemshaven and later possibly also offshore, is expected to be around 800,000 tonnes a year by 2040.
