Renewable energy development company CWP Global and Germany’s Hydrogenious LOHC Technologies, a pioneer in liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC), have signed a memorandum of understanding for a joint feasibility study in 2023.

This study will involve a 500 ton per day hydrogen transport chain from Morocco to Europe using Hydrogenious’ proven LOHC technology. The 15 GW AMUN project, located near the city of Tan Tan in Morocco, will be explored as a starting point for the feasibility study. This project aims to produce ammonia locally from green hydrogen to support decarbonization of fertilizers and shipping, among other things.

500 tons of hydrogen per day to Europe

The 15 GW AMUN project will be the basis for model considerations, exploring a 500 ton per day hydrogen transport chain to Europe via LOHC. Due to the flexibility, safety and cost efficiency, the partners decided to also explore LOHC transport as an alternative, allowing them to transport green hydrogen directly to Europe.

“We are very pleased to collaborate with Hydrogenious on this study that will further explore the viability of LOHCs for long-distance green hydrogen transport, using our 15 GW AMUN project as a model. This marks another step in building the clean energy future we are working towards, identifying the most efficient and cost-effective solutions for deploying green hydrogen and its derivatives to achieve Net Zero goals by 2050,” said Guido Schumacher, chief technology officer at CWP Global.

“At Hydrogenious, we are very pleased to be working with CWP Global on this feasibility study. Our collaboration once again highlights the great benefits of our LOHC solution. As a large-scale hydrogen storage and transportation option, our LOHC technology has many advantages over other transportation methods, especially in terms of safety in urban areas or ports and the purity of the hydrogen achieved. We can also use the existing infrastructure for liquid fuels, thus accelerating the development of the hydrogen value chain,” added Dr. Andreas Lehmann, chief strategy officer at Hydrogenious LOHC Technologies.
