Large scale hydrogen production
PosHYdon will be the world’s first pilot for offshore hydrogen production and transmission on a working platform. The project is seen as a stepping-stone towards large scale, far offshore hydrogen production, which will be necessary after 2030. Iv-Offshore & Energy will define the requirements for the electrolyser system to fit the offshore application. A series of adaptations are required to accommodate the electrolysis system at the Q13-A platform. Iv-Offshore & Energy will also provide the engineering for the necessary platform modifications and the system integration to facilitate offshore hydrogen production.
