Wind turbine behemoth plans for future by getting into hydrogen: Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy SA has one eye on the future where its wind turbines could play a key role in creating hydrogen.
The company, which earlier this year launched the world’s biggest
wind turbine, plans to start a pilot project in Denmark to test how its
machines could power production of the fuel seen as key to eliminating
carbon emissions from transportation and heavy industries. The European
Union has big plans for the clean-burning gas and the bloc placed it at
the center of its Green Deal earlier this year.
The pilot project is under construction near Siemens Gamesa’s Danish
headquarters in Brande, western Denmark, chief executive officer Andreas
Nauen said in an interview on Thursday. It will include a
three-megawatt wind turbine that will power a 400-kilowatt electrolyzer,
a machine that separates the hydrogen atoms in water from oxygen atoms.
