Enabling energy transition with H2 imports to Germany   

Summary 

The H2 Import Terminal in Lubmin, Germany, will be the world’s first floating import terminal for green hydrogen. The floating terminal repurposes LNG infrastructure to import and convert green ammonia into hydrogen on an industrial scale, and help Germany realize its decarbonization goals.

Challenge 

The acceleration of energy transition in Germany, particularly in decarbonizing its industrial sectors, will require new infrastructure solutions that can efficiently handle large quantities of green hydrogen and supply it into the country’s core hydrogen network. 

Solution 

Höegh Evi has partnered with Deutsche ReGas to develop the “H2-Import-Terminal Lubmin.” Utilizing Höegh Evi’s green ammonia cracker technology, the terminal will efficiently convert green ammonia into hydrogen. Our approach leverages existing marine infrastructure to provide a cost-effective and rapid method to bring hydrogen into Germany’s energy market.
