🔍🏭 Does a Hydrogen Power Plant Make Sense? 🌍⚡ #Hydrogen #SustainableEnergy

What do you think about the viability of hydrogen power plants? Share your perspective.

🔍🏭 Between 2010 and 2018, Italy was home to an impressive global milestone: the first industrial-scale hydrogen power plant in Fusina, Venice, which operated for eight years. This combined cycle plant used 1.3 tonnes of hydrogen per hour as a by-product of the production cycle at the Marghera petrochemical plant. Although its origin was not completely clean, it represented a unique technological model at national level. However, it was discontinued when the production cycle that fed it was shut down.

Today, five years later, the drive towards hydrogen is stronger than ever in Europe. In Germany, the government is preparing tenders to build new power plants with a capacity of 23.8 GW, including 8.8 GW “hydrogen-ready” and 15 GW of natural gas. Also in Italy, projects such as Sanam in Istrana, Treviso, are exploring the use of hydrogen to produce electricity, with the installation of a NovaLT12 turbine (12 MW) designed by Baker Hughes.
