Project data

H2 Quantity:

The project can produce 300,000 kilograms of hydrogen per year. This is the amount of hydrogen needed to supply the regional buses and significantly reduces the environmental impact of fossil fuels.

Mobile storage:

H2APEX has developed its own mobile storage solutions that enable flexible and efficient refueling of buses on the road.

Stationary storage:

The stationary storage capacity of 2,347 kg ensures that a sufficient quantity of hydrogen is available at all times to meet demand. In this way, gaps in supply can be avoided and a reliable planning basis is created for the bus companies.

For comparison: a typical hydrogen bus requires around 10 kg of hydrogen for 100 km. With 2,347 kg of hydrogen, around 235 buses could be refueled for a distance of 100 km.

Refueling:

The hydrogen filling station is capable of refueling 52 buses in 16 hours. Refueling takes place via a mobile hydrogen trailer.

Information:

H2Apex has been operating the first hydrogen filling station for heavy goods vehicles in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern since 2022. This enables trucks, buses and cars to be refueled with climate-neutral hydrogen.

Milestones:

  • Submission of G application: 10/23
  • Receipt of G-notice: expected 01/2024
  • Start of regular operations: Q3/24

H2APEX demo system

H2APEX demo system H2Apex has built a plant for the production of hydrogen at the Rostock-Lage site and also operates its own hydrogen filling station. Due to its proximity to the A19, the location is particularly well suited to providing the fuel required for refueling H2-powered vehicles.

H2APEX hydrogen power plant
H2APEX hydrogen power plant

Task

H2Apex wanted to lay the foundation for the sustainable production of green hydrogen with its first own plant. This plant will produce hydrogen and also serve as a demo for potential customers and investors. At the same time, a filling station was to be built to allow heavy-duty vehicles in particular to refuel with hydrogen while on the road.

Solution and implementation

Our state-of-the-art plant is located in Laage, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, and is designed to produce hydrogen by electrolysis. This innovative technology uses renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power to convert water into clean hydrogen and oxygen.

As part of our commitment to promoting the hydrogen economy, we also operate an H2 filling station for heavy-duty vehicles. This filling station enables trucks and other heavy vehicles to use environmentally friendly hydrogen as fuel and thus make an important contribution to reducing emissions.

Our plant is a significant step towards a sustainable future and stands for innovation and progress in clean energy production.

Achievements

The storage facility was put into operation in 2020. Since then, it has been used for the production, use, storage and marketing of H2. The energy required for operation comes from nearby renewable energy sources, primarily wind and solar.

REAL LABORATORY H2-WYHLEN

REAL LABORATORY H2-WYHLEN The real laboratory is located in Wyhlen, a district of Grenzach-Wyhlen in Baden-Württemberg. On site, we are researching the integration of hydrogen as an energy carrier in various areas. These include, for example, the use of hydrogen in mobility, industrial process heat and energy storage.

H2 Wyhlen
H2 Wyhlen

Task

In the real laboratory in Whylen, hydrogen is produced locally at the site where the electricity is generated. The aim is to convert hydropower into storable energy through electrolysis and make it directly usable.

Solution and implementation

A project with a holistic approach was planned in Whylen (Baden-Württemberg). It covers the entire hydrogen value chain, from production to storage and use. A 5 MW electrolysis plant including pressure storage will be built on site. The hydrogen produced can be filled and transported via trailers.

Achievements

The H2-Wyhlen real-world laboratory plays an important role in the further development of hydrogen technologies and helps to further develop the potential of hydrogen as a clean and sustainable energy source.

It is currently still being implemented. An efficient plant structure has been developed and the tender for the main components has been successfully completed. All the main components have been ordered. The aim is to start trial operations in March 2025.

HyBit Bremen CO2-NEUTRAL STEEL PRODUCTION

HyBit Bremen CO2-NEUTRAL STEEL PRODUCTION The HyBit project is the starting point for the decarbonization of steel production in Bremen. At the power plant site in Mittelsbüren, green hydrogen is to be produced using the electrolysis process to enable the production of climate-neutral steel in the future.

Model_22_05_10_15_3072_0000_small

Task

Steel production is one of the biggest CO2 emitters in the world. The pressure on the industry to sustainably reduce its negative impact on the environment is therefore correspondingly high. The task of this project was to provide green hydrogen directly on site for the reduction of iron ore in the future.

Solution and implementation

The HyBit project is a major milestone in this direction. To this end, Arcelor Mittal’s steelworks is switching from the conventional blast furnace process to the innovative direct reduction process. In the current blast furnace process, the iron ore is converted into iron using hard coal coke, which releases a lot ofCO2. In future direct reduction, hydrogen will replace hard coal coke. Instead of climate-damagingCO2, only water vapor is released as a by-product.

The project to build a 10 MW electrolysis plant with transfer station, trailer filling and emergency feed-in is currently underway. The facility will be designed in such a way that it fits into the existing infrastructure.
