The company is already a contract partner of RWE. A 10-MW alkaline electrolyser by the Dresden company is part of a pilot plant on the site of the Emsland gas-fired power plant where RWE is currently testing two electrolysis technologies (PEM and alkaline) Bilfinger will be the solution partner for the integration of electrolysis Bilfinger is taking on extensive planning tasks as well as the delivery and installation of the ancillary process technology systems such as water and hydrogen treatment The contracts were signed just days after the final investment decision on RWE’s largest hydrogen project to date was made. The green light to build the plant was given after funding had been granted by the German government and the State of Lower Saxony COO Hydrogen at RWE Generation SE: “The construction work for the first 200 megawatts of electrolyser capacity is progressing well We have now contracted Sunfire and Bilfinger to deliver the elements for the next phase of the project This is sending out a strong signal to companies that are planning to switch their processes to green hydrogen With the pipeline and storage infrastructure of other GET H2 partners being built in parallel we will soon be able to supply green hydrogen in line with market requirements and in a structured manner.” CEO Sunfire: “RWE relies on Sunfire as an established electrolysis specialist for the realisation of large-scale industrial projects We are delighted about this renewed vote of confidence and look forward to further expanding our proven partnership with RWE Sunfire is one of the few companies in the world already realising electrolysers on an industrial scale With an order backlog of over 800 megawatts we are a favoured partner for large-scale projects.” Bilfinger Group CEO: “The additional electrolysis plant in Lingen is another key building block in the transformation of our energy system towards efficient and sustainable technologies We are very pleased about the cooperation with RWE and the opportunity to make a decisive contribution to the successful implementation of this forward-looking plant with our expertise in the field of hydrogen.” RWE collaborates primarily with the grid operators Nowega and OGE to connect its production facilities for green hydrogen to industrial consumers in Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia the energy company is to commission its first 100-MW electrolyser The capacity of the plants is to be expanded in 100-MW increments to 300 MW by 2027 Companies can find more information on how to procure green hydrogen on the hydrogen sales page of RWE An illustration of the GET H2 Nukleus electrolyser plant for media use (credit: RWE) is available at the RWE Media Centre The left part of the building will house the Sunfire electrolyser and the ancillary systems by Bilfinger Marissa Lingen has published more than 100 short stories in venues such as Analog It was the moment I’d worked for all my life and somehow it was even better than I’d imagined it: they named the crew of the Mars mission I was glad they were putting the crew names on a projection so I could see mine up there with Peter O’Riley’s and Leslie Neumann’s so that I had confirmation it was not my imagination but the real thing Prices may be subject to local taxes which are calculated during checkout doi: https://doi.org/10.1038/d41586-024-04048-z Walking in two worlds: how an Indigenous computer scientist is using AI to preserve threatened languages Native American tribe teams up with genomicists to confirm link to iconic ancient site HT is an interdisciplinary research institute created and supported by the Italian government whose aim is to develop innovative strategies to pr..

important for us to promote a holistic understanding of these topics among young talents I am always impressed by the commitment of the pupils and their technological as well as creative solutions all approaches fit very well here in our Innovation Center says Marc Baumeister (Head of Innovation Center) happily on the occasion of the event the teams of around 100 pupils prepared for the competition by designing and programming an autonomous LEGO robot they developed a research project on the event motto "SUBMERGED" It invites them to explore the different layers of the ocean and present their findings and ideas for the future "ROSEN stands for innovative technologies that pave the way for a sustainable future – through creative development processes This is exactly what the pupils proved: They built their autonomous robots tested and discarded ideas and overcame obstacles in the process one thing counts above all: strong teamwork and fun at work can the best solutions be created – that's how we do it at ROSEN ," explains Marc sea creatures immediately took over the stage gave the official starting signal for the FIRST® LEGO® League 2025 in line with the motto The teams then submerged themselves in the world of science which were assessed in various disciplines by a jury of ROSEN and Rosenxt employees they first presented their research project and then their LEGO robot they were able to collect valuable points for the categories of research It quickly became clear that each team had found a creative solution focused on the topic of sonar and investigated how it is possible to orientate and see something under water In order to achieve a good rating in the core values category it was particularly important to show team spirit and good teamwork The following item on the agenda consisted of three preliminary rounds for the Robot Games a total of eight teams qualified for the quarter-finals the LEGO robots programmed by the teams solve predefined tasks in two and a half minutes on a special playing field equipped with LEGO models the robots had to raise the mast of a shipwreck or free a treasure chest from the nest of a Kraken The pressure resulted not only from the short time available but also from the fact that two teams had to compete in the competition arena at the same time The quarter-finals were followed by the semi-finals before the highlight of the event in the evening: the Robot Game final "FranziRobots 1" and "CBB Legends," fought an exciting duel the "FranziRobots 1" team ultimately won the final as they scored the most

industry.” Give your business an edge with our leading industry insights View all newsletters from across the GlobalData Media network have signed a long-term agreement for supply of green hydrogen to TotalEnergies’ 227,000-b/d Leuna refinery in central Germany’s state of Saxony-Anhalt RWE will supply 30,000 tonnes/year (tpy) of green hydrogen produced from its 300-Mw electrolyzer in Lingen to TotalEnergies’ Leuna refinery for a 15-year period beginning in 2030 through yearend 2044 the companies said in separate mid-March releases The green hydrogen supply—which will result in a 300,000-tpy reduction in the Leuna platform’s emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) over the duration of the contract—will be delivered directly to the refinery’s gates via a 600-km pipeline In addition to marking the largest quantity of carbon-neutral hydrogen ever to be contracted from a German electrolyzer the long-term offtake supply agreement designates TotalEnergies as an anchor customer for the Lingen electrolyzer plant on which RWE took final investment decision to build only 6 months ago for targeted commissioning in 2027 The green-hydrogen supply relationship between RWE and TotalEnergies specifically will be enabled by the German hydrogen core network which will connect hydrogen production sites—such as Lingen in Lower Saxony—with large centers of industrial hydrogen consumption like Leuna the German hydrogen pipeline network is scheduled to enter phased operations between 2025 and 2032 via a combination of repurposing existing gas pipelines and building sections of new pipelines The newly inked green-hydrogen supply agreement with RWE comes as part of TotalEnergies’ broader plan to decarbonize all hydrogen used in its European refineries by 2030 in line with the operator’s ongoing long-term transformational strategy of gradually pivoting operations away from its traditional oil and gas history in alignment with its aim to achieve carbon neutrality across the whole of its business by 2050 which needs a substantial volume of green hydrogen to decarbonize all of its European refineries has already invited tenders seeking 500,000 tpy of green hydrogen for its sites across Europe This latest contract for supplies of green hydrogen follows TotalEnergies’ expansion of its partnership with Air Liquide SA in February to increase production of green hydrogen that the operator will use to help decarbonize its refineries in Belgium and the Netherlands (OGJ Online, Feb. 18, 2025) Robert Brelsford joined Oil & Gas Journal in October 2013 as downstream technology editor after 8 years as a crude oil price and news reporter on spot crude transactions at the US Gulf Coast He holds a BA (2000) in English from Rice University and an MS (2003) in education and social policy from Northwestern University the German energy company RWE plans to be ready to produce green hydrogen for industrial customers at its gas-fired power plant in Lingen – thanks to a new 300-megawatt plant comprising three electrolysis units After the commissioning of the first two construction stages in 2022 RWE has now assigned the industrial services provider Bilfinger with the integration of the third 100 MW electrolysis plant including the planning and installation of the auxiliary and ancillary plants a new large-scale plant in the North of Germany is expected to make a significant contribution towards more sustainable and efficient energy sources In the context of the “GET H2 Nukleus” project RWE is expanding their production site in Lingen making it a key driver of their hydrogen strategy: A 300-MW electrolysis plant is to become the starting point in the development of a cross-regional hydrogen infrastructure and the supply of industrial customers GET H2 Nukleus is the energy company’s largest hydrogen project to date RWE has contracted Bilfinger as the main solution partner for the integration of the third electrolysis unit Bilfinger will take on extensive planning tasks as well as the delivery and installation of the ancillary process technology systems in order to ensure the efficient integration and connection of the water and hydrogen treatment “Our goal is to supply industrial clients with climate-neutral hydrogen in the coming years,” says Sopna Sury “We are building on Bilfinger’s engineering and hydrogen expertise to achieve this goal most efficiently by integrating the third 100 MW plant for us Bilfinger is becoming a valuable partner for the implementation of our hydrogen strategy in the RWE Group.” Hydrogen projects like RWE’s are of central importance to Bilfinger as well as these collaborations reflect the company’s vision to become the number one partner in enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of customers: “Green hydrogen plays a crucial role in the transformation of our energy system We are pleased about the trust RWE is placing in us with the implementation of their pioneering plant This joint effort will enable us to make a further important contribution to the development of efficient and sustainable energy supply solutions,” says Thomas Schulz Bilfinger offers client companies comprehensive solutions for the production transportation and utilization of hydrogen By bundling both the necessary expertise and services – from consulting procurement and construction to

Climate Action Robert Habeck Lower Saxony’s Minister President Stephan Weil as well as Lower Saxony’s Minister for the Environment Energy and Climate Protection were present when RWE commissioned its pilot electrolyser plant in Lingen The facility on the site of RWE’s Emsland gas-fired power plant has a capacity of 14 megawatts (MW) It can generate up to 270 kilogrammes of green hydrogen per hour using electricity from renewable sources Featuring two different electrolysis technologies the pilot plant is to provide valuable insights for developing future industrial-scale hydrogen facilities The first large commercial electrolyser plant is already being built only metres away a 100-MW electrolyser is to be commissioned there by 2025 with its capacity to be expanded to 300 MW by 2027 CEO of RWE AG: “Lingen is one of the most exciting locations of the German energy transition In addition to operating our flexible gas-fired power plant and our state-of-the-art large-scale battery system we are now also producing green hydrogen here we will expand our production capacities for green hydrogen at this site further to supply industrial consumers with green molecules and thus support them in their decarbonisation efforts our teams are pioneering these innovative technologies here and hydrogen storage facilities we have a target picture of the future We can see a part of this vision becoming reality here and now.” Minister President Stephan Weil: “The pioneering work that is being done in Lingen is exemplary we see how industry can be decarbonised successfully in an impressive manner The production of green hydrogen on an industrial scale supported financially by us as the state government here at RWE is a key prerequisite for successfully transforming our energy supply and our industry towards becoming climate neutral the state of Lower Saxony is leading the way in terms of investments in this technology 50 per cent of Germany’s green hydrogen production as recently approved by the EU is to come from Lower Saxony Lower Saxony is to become a hub for producing We are thus on a good trajectory towards developing into Germany’s number-one hydrogen state it is important to grow the industrial demand for hydrogen further and create the best-possible conditions for utilising electricity from renewable sources in an even more targeted manner rather than having to curtail production in order to prevent congestion on the electricity grids.” The Lower Saxony Ministry for the Environment Energy and Climate Protection provided eight million euros in funding for the pilot electrolyser that has just been commissioned The company has also been granted funding from the federal government and the state of Lower Saxony of over 490 million euros for constructing the 300-MW electrolyser as part of the GET H2 Nukleus project RWE uses the pilot plant to gain valuable insights into developing and operating industrial-scale systems The pilot electrolyser consists of two sub-systems - an alkaline electrolyser from Sunfire with a capacity of 10 MW and a 4 MW plant designed and built by Linde using a PEM electrolyser (PEM: proton exchange membrane) from ITM Power the hydrogen produced in the pilot plant is to be added to the fuel for the power plant’s unit D gas turbine as part of a comprehensive test programme at the site it will also be possible to fill hydrogen-powered vehicles with hydrogen from the pilot plant at the Emsland gas-fired power plant The construction work for a hydrogen filling station and a trailer filling facility for hydrogen has already commenced Lingen as a starting point for the ramp-up of the hydrogen economy RWE is part of the GET H2 initiative aimed at building the first hydrogen infrastructure in Germany that is accessible to the public The GET H2 Nukleus project connects the production facilities for green hydrogen in Lingen to industrial consumers in Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia spanning 130 km from Lingen to Gelsenkirchen is to become the first hydrogen grid in the regulated sector with transparent prices and providing non-discriminatory access the initiative wants to contribute towards significantly accelerating the ramp-up of the hydrogen economy and help companies in the industrial and mobility sectors to reach their climate targets You can find an overview of the most important

copyrights: RWE) 19 nuclear power units with Soviet-designed VVER reactors operate within the EU All operators of these plants’ operators have already signed new contracts with alternative suppliers — the U.S company Westinghouse or the French company Framatome.  Framatome intends to supply Russian fuel assembled under a Rosatom license in the coming years These plans have sparked heated debates that have brewed for some time Germany to discuss proposals for the licensed production of Russian nuclear fuel for VVER reactors in the EU Framatome plans to expand production at the Lingen fuel fabrication plant operated by its subsidiary Advanced Nuclear Fuels (ANF) in collaboration with the Russian company TVEl a subsidiary fully owned by state-owned Rosatom After ANF’s submitted license expansion application to the Lower Saxony Environment Ministry became publicly available in early 2024 approximately 11,000 objections were filed against the plans for expansion and cooperation with Russia the Lower Saxony Environment Ministry organized a meeting of 400 people between Nov it remains unclear what decision will be made on the fate of the license and when After Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the imposition of extensive sanctions on various sectors of the country’s economy the issue of reducing Europe’s dependence on Russia's nuclear industry became critical 19 nuclear power units with Soviet and Russian-designed VVER reactors operating in Finland The only alternative supplier for these reactors is currently Westinghouse which has already assisted Ukraine's transition away from Russian fuel for half of its nuclear units before 2022 and now supplies fuel for all nine operational units under Ukraine's control three shipments of fuel pellets were sent from the MSZ plant to Lingen throughout 2023 and 2024 This initiative eventually received over 11,000 objections and led to public hearings in November 2024 while the Ministry for the Environment has yet to respond this could provide the Kremlin with intelligence to carry out provocations or sabotage at European nuclear power plants the question remains why after more than a year and a half of reviewing the application Perhaps the complexity of the legal justification and German thoroughness prevent making the simple swift and obvious decision to deny the license especially given the current political climate Along with the specific security concerns raised it is worth considering the role and prospects of this production within the broader context of the West’s nuclear industry and energy sector’s move to sever ties with Moscow is this joint project with Russia for Europe and the French company Russia and Rosatom's economic motives are understandable. The export of nuclear fuel for European VVER reactors brought Rosatom approximately €300–700 million ($310-731 million) annually A licensing deal with Framatome could retain at least part of this revenue as direct deliveries of Russian fuel are expected to cease in the near future the only alternative supplier of nuclear fuel for VVER-1000 and VVER-440 reactors is the North American company The company has its own licensed technology and many years of experience supplying fuel for VVER-1000 reactors in Ukraine this fuel began to be loaded into a power unit at the Kozloduy NPP in Bulgaria with deliveries expected to a unit in the Czech Republic by the end of the year Fuel for the continent’s 15 VVER-440 reactors was developed later Westinghouse began delivering fuel to two units at the Rivne Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine in late 2023 to the Loviisa Nuclear Power Plant in Finland the world's second-largest supplier of nuclear fuel after Westinghouse does not yet have its own independent technology for VVER reactor fuel despite working on its development since 2018 According to the company's plans presented at the PWR Prague 2024 conference the development of its fuel for VVER-1000 reactors is scheduled to be completed in 2025 Framatome will not be able to complete its own fuel development on time and will only be able to fulfill its contractual obligations on schedule by using licensed Russian fuel assemblies The only exception may be the fuel supply to Bulgaria next year which could have either gone to Westinghouse or been extended with Rosatom it remains uncertain whether Westinghouse could have expanded fuel production sufficiently within 2-3 years to meet the demand expanding the license for the Lingen plant is crucial for Framatome to fulfill its multi-million euro obligations under existing contracts It would undoubtedly benefit Europe’s energy security to eliminate any critical dependence on fuel supplies from Russia as quickly as possible To expedite the development of alternative supplies Euratom has supported two projects aimed at developing and implementing alternative fuel for VVER reactors Both projects received €10 million in financial support from the EU with participation from all VVER reactor operators in five EU countries The main difference between the two projects is that the first is led by Westinghouse competition and the presence of at least two alternative suppliers provide greater flexibility and choice for end customers as well as ensuring the security of future supplies the business interests of individual companies may conflict with the policy of cutting ties with Russia leading to overt or covert cooperation with Rosatom especially as there are no EU-level sanctions against this cooperation by compromising the principles of free market competition the EU could issue a directive requiring operators of VVER reactors to stop purchasing nuclear fuel produced by or through cooperation with Russia at a similar timeframe to the delayed U.S ban on buying enriched Russian Uranium,  as part of the next EU sanctions package related to Russia's aggression in Ukraine It is true this would lead to signing contracts with the sole supplier combined with the requirement for shorter contracts (not immediately for 10 years for example),  this would make it possible in future when Framatome completes its fuel development (possibly even sooner than currently stated) to move to a competitive selection of Western suppliers and greater supply stability Framatome's constant emphasis that it is the only company that can develop truly sovereign European fuel since Westinghouse is from North America (owned by Canadian companies Westinghouse’s fuel production facilities for VVER reactors are located entirely in the EU — at a plant in Sweden with the involvement of the Spanish company Enusa more production will take place in Ukraine The imbalance in Westinghouse’s favor could have been mitigated by creating a unified project under the auspices of Euratom for the development rather than two separate projects like APIS and SAFE and sanctions on Russian fuel at the EU level (which would advantage Westinghouse) would likely have been blocked by France and Hungary This is why Framatome is currently trying to secure a portion of the market even at the cost of cooperation with Rosatom with which European nuclear power plant operators want to sever ties it is not surprising that Paris’ Hungarian partners as Hungary remains the only EU country where Rosatom is carrying out a construction project It is unclear how much more time the German authorities will need to make a decision about the Lingnen plant’s license Framatome may still have the opportunity to try to set up a licensed assembly of Russian fuel at its plant in France or even under a different brand at Rosatom’s plant in Russia.  All of these risks could have been avoided only with official EU sanctions on the supply of Russian fuel the political decisions of certain countries and the unwillingness to seek more flexible and compromise-based approaches leave us with the situation as it is the issue of the security of future fuel supplies has moved from the high offices of EU leaders to the hearing room in Lingen where local residents and activists voiced in no uncertain terms what diplomats have struggled to express in milder form over the past few years Now the decision rests once more with diplomats lawyers and officials from the Lower Saxony Environment Ministry Russia's Prosecutor

tanker vehicles that is not open to the public The fuel station and filling line will source their green hydrogen from RWE’s 14-megawatt pilot electrolyser in Lingen which will commence operations in the near future COO Hydrogen at RWE Generation SE: “Until companies in the region are connected to a hydrogen distribution network our filling infrastructure creates an opportunity for green molecules to reach the customer by road we will make green hydrogen available as early as 2025 and enable companies to switch their processes to hydrogen and achieve their climate targets at an early stage.” CEO Westfalen Group: “The future belongs to hydrogen as a raw material and energy source The hydrogen refuelling station and the neighbouring filling station here in Lingen are just the first visible signs of the hydrogen cooperation between RWE and Westfalen Both companies are representative of the industry which is more than ready for a hydrogen ramp-up in Germany.” The project is being funded by the Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport Affairs (BMDV) with a total of €6 million as part of the National Innovation Programme for Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology Funding for this measure is also provided as part of the German Recovery and Resilience Plan (DARP) via the European Recovery and Resilience Facilities (ARF) in the NextGenerationEU programme The funding guideline is coordinated by NOW GmbH and implemented by Project Management Jülich (PtJ) The total investment volume amounts to around €18 million RWE and Westfalen AG are working together to develop and construct the plant while Westfalen will take charge of operations The facility in Lingen is the first joint undertaking by the two companies To expand the hydrogen fuel station network in Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia RWE and Westfalen Group have set up a joint venture under the name of “two4H2” The refuelling station can provide up to 500 kilograms of hydrogen per day For comparison: a fuel cell truck consumes up to 10 kilograms of hydrogen per 100 kilometres The entire system can process over 2,500 kilograms of hydrogen per day Pictures of the H2 Filling Hub for media use (credit: RWE)

Asset ManagementRobots are taking over the world Senior Investment Manager at Pictet Asset Management discusses how investors can take advantage of this theme the first industrial robot started work in a car assembly line in the US state of New Jersey it unloaded metal car parts from a die-cast press robots are no longer confined to the factory floor they are increasingly part of our day-to-day lives There are some 3.5 million of them in the world [1]. capable of not only assembling your car but also of hoovering your house delivering your shopping and even playing bingo with your granny Yet the signs are the robotics industry has entered a new Advances in technology, be that artificial intelligence (AI) or ever smaller and more powerful semiconductors, are paving the way for the development – and adoption – of a new breed of sophisticated machines. At the same time, labor shortages, an aging population and declining productivity are driving demand for automation. this represents a very attractive opportunity that is underpinned by strong secular growth trends and goes beyond robots themselves We anticipate these to be the five key themes that will drive the sector in the coming years Relocation and Shifting Production to Nearby Countries The semiconductor industry is one of the key sectors targeted by the re-shoring trend due to the increasingly vital nature of semiconductors and other related technologies Building semiconductor factories is a major focus of Washington’s USD 550 billion federal infrastructure spending package and similar incentives have been approved accross several nations and economic unions 1 – Global annual supply of industrial robots Data covering period 01.01.2016-31.12.2022; forecasts for 2023-2026 improving and cheaper technology boosting demand for this type of robotic tech Cobots are proving particularly popular with small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) and electric vehicle manufacturers which itself is a major growth area as countries move to outlaw traditional cars to meet net zero targets 2 – Cobots’ share in total industrial robot installations Data covering period 01.01.2017-31.12.2022 The growth of automation – whether in the home or in industry – depends on software it is increasingly moving to a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model whereby companies pay a subscription fee to use the software which is stored in the cloud or in a hybrid environment The industrial software market could more than double to over USD 250 billion by 2027 This should lead to efficiency gains throughout the process from product design and simulation to sending the blueprint to the factory or manufacturing partner and optimising the supply chain Cloud based solutions help reduce the cost and complexities of managing the software itself and also enable data centralisation Data analytics on top of that is growing strongly as more and more data is generated Business process automation is also growing in popularity the process through which companies use software solutions to boost the productivity of white collar workers advances in AI are enabling companies to use large amounts of data to improve operational efficiency As machines become increasingly sophisticated they need more processing power to compute and process data requiring vast amounts of data and processing power to create new content That means more sophisticated semiconductors Manufacturers of computing processors appear to be natural beneficiaries of the expansion of AI but large language models (LLMs) also require other types of chips such as those that boost memory capacity and bandwidth compute and storage semiconductors account for the majority of semiconductor sales Memory (“DRAM”) and storage (“NAND Flash”) chips are primarily used for storing data and instructions while processing chips (such as the core “CPU” in a computer or a complementary accelerator chip like a “GPU”) are used for performing calculations and processing data in real time Also important in the semiconductor food chain are electronic design automation (EDA) companies who provide software solutions for the chip designers The level of innovation and incorporation of AI into the software enable the chip designers to speed up the design phase and improve the power and compute efficiency Furthermore advances in AI should boost the prospects of semiconductor equipment companies They provide the chipmaking tools that produce smaller more powerful and energy-efficient microchips Semiconductor manufacturing plants (known as “fabs”) are some of the most highly automated factories in the world and in turn require increasing usage of AI processes to improve yields and output but today they are increasingly driving them are still some years away from becoming viable for the mass market live trials are already in progress across the world has notched up millions of miles on public roads (and billions more in simulation) and has been offering driverless rides to San Francisco residents for over a year Autonomous vehicles are also already partly a reality through the inclusion of various aspects of advanced driver assistance (ADAS) technologies in the latest car models As these become more common and more advanced each car is expected to contain USD1,550 worth of semiconductors revolutionizing robotics and automation technologies reduce costs and help solve problems related to global labor shortages we believe robotics and automation will grow faster than the economy as a whole This offers a very attractive thematic investment opportunity both in the companies that manufacture the robots and in those that provide all the necessary elements For more insights on opportunities within our Robotics fund, please click here Disclaimer: This marketing material has been issued by Pictet

Agenda Style Contributors About us Contact and Help ElectrolysersBP orders 100MW of electrolysers from Accelera for German green hydrogen projectThe Cummins business unit will manufacture the 20 PEM electrolysers at its Guadalajara plant in Spain the German government and federal state governments confirmed that funding of over 619 million euros has been granted to implement two of RWE’s large hydrogen projects The funds will be provided for the construction of a 300-MW electrolyser to generate green hydrogen in Lingen (Lower Saxony) as part of the GET H2 Nukleus project as well as a hydrogen facility in Gronau-Epe (North Rhine-Westphalia) A third strand of funding has been granted to a consortium developing a 100-MW electrolyser plant at the port of Rostock (Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania) as part of the HyTechHafen Rostock project The federal government is providing 70% of the total funding for each of the projects and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania are contributing 30% to the venture on their respective territories RWE is planning to invest a medium three-digit million-euro amount in the three projects CEO of RWE AG: “Today is a great day for the ramp-up of the hydrogen economy Thanks to the funding from the German government and the federal state governments the first industrial-scale hydrogen projects in Germany can now be implemented Green electricity and hydrogen will be crucial in terms of making locations attractive to industry It is thus vital to also invest in electrolysers producing hydrogen in Germany and the associated infrastructure including storage facilities without delay Our Team RWE has worked tirelessly to drive our hydrogen projects forward – it is great to see that they are getting off the ground now.” The EU Commission recognised the projects as Important Projects of Common European Interest (IPCEI) in February This made it possible for national bodies to grant funding Germany’s Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Action and representatives from the federal states presented the funding notifications in Berlin on Monday The Lingen site plays a key part in RWE’s hydrogen strategy the company wants to install hydrogen generating capacities of 300 megawatts in 100-megawatt increments by 2027 as part of the GET H2 Nukleus project The first 100-MW electrolyser is to be commissioned in 2025 Green hydrogen produced in Lingen will help industrial companies to significantly reduce their carbon emissions Transport and storage infrastructure will play a crucial role in the ramp-up of the hydrogen economy Two caverns will be used for storing hydrogen in RWE Gas Storage West’s planned facility in Gronau-Epe The storage plant is aimed at balancing out the fluctuations in hydrogen generation using wind and solar energy In this way hydrogen can be supplied to industrial customers as required by the companies The first hydrogen is to be stored at the facility in 2026 A 100-MW electrolyser will be constructed at Rostock port as part of the HyTechHafen Rostock project and will produce green hydrogen from 2027 Some of the hydrogen is intended to supply local consumers the rest to be fed into the Germany-wide hydrogen core grid that is currently being developed The operating company is a joint venture of ROSTOCK PORT GmbH BP Plc has scaled back plans for biofuels production at its Cherry Point refinery in the US and its Lingen plant in Germany. The company won’t proceed with plans for stand-alone biofuels production units at those two facilities, spokesman David Nicholas said by phone. The company will now focus at those sites on what’s known as co-processing, where biofuels feedstocks are used in combination with petroleum.  The comments add detail to an earlier statement, in which BP said it would pause plans at two sites while continuing to assess three for progression. Those three are Kwinana in Australia, Castellon in Spain and Rotterdam in the Netherlands, Nicholas said.  Separately, BP said it would take control of a Brazilian joint venture that makes ethanol from sugarcane.  Brenda Burger died June 18, 2024 after a long hard fought 7 year battle with cancer.
