These steel pipes will be used to create a transport hydrogen in the south of German Lingen, the Nowega announced. 180 pipes are required for the 2.7 km pipeline.
The line is intended to connect the electrolysis plant to the GET H2 infrastructure that RWE aims to build in Lingen. An important next step for electrolysis was taken this week with the approval from the Oldenburg Trade Inspectorate.
Unfortunately, the #EU notification as a prerequisite for the funding decision from the federal and state governments within the framework of the #IPCEI program is still pending for the pipeline as well as for the electrolysis. The notification should be available by the end of this year.
“We are already implementing the necessary first steps so that the line can be completed on time after the final go-ahead is still pending and the hydrogen network can be started”, said Nowega .
The GET H2 partners bp, Evonik, Nowega, OGE and RWE Generation want to jointly build the first publicly accessible hydrogen infrastructure. The GET H2 Nukleus project connects the production of green hydrogen with industrial consumers in Lower Saxony and NRW. The approximately 130-kilometre network from Lingen to Gelsenkirchen is to become the first H2 network in the regulated sector with non-discriminatory access and transparent prices.
