Air Products delivers first CertifHy Green Hydrogen to H2Mobility Deutschland and Transport for London

One of the first to receive Guarantees of Origin under CertifHy; renewable hydrogen will support vehicle fuelling stations.

Air Products, the CertifHy pilot plant and global leading hydrogen supplier, generates some of Europe’s first Guarantees of Origin (GO) for sustainable, renewable hydrogen produced in The Netherlands, under the CertifHy scheme.

The GOs are being sought for hydrogen produced at the Rotterdam chloralkaline electrolyser plants of Nouryon (formerly AkzoNobel Specialty Chemicals), which uses wind power as part of its energy mix. This renewable power is sourced from the recently completed Krammer and Bouwdokken windfarms in The Netherlands. Once produced, the hydrogen is conditioned by Air Products before taking into its established pipeline in Rotterdam for commercial use.

As part of the pilot project, two of Air Products’ hydrogen customers in the mobility sector will receive GOs for renewable hydrogen. The first is H2 MOBLITY Deutschland, an organisation operating a network of hydrogen fuelling stations in Germany. The second is London’s integrated transport authority, Transport for London, which operates hydrogen buses across the United Kingdom’s capital.

Kurt Lefevere, Vice President Northern Continent at Air Products said: “To make a real contribution towards a clean, sustainable transportation system it is critical that members of the supply chain come together. We’re always looking for opportunities to achieve operational efficiency and help meet the carbon dioxide emission reduction targets of European Union countries in a cost-effective way. Having a European-wide Guarantees of Origin system for renewable hydrogen will support these goals, and our project with Nouryon is an innovative example of what can be achieved where circumstances permit.”

Marcel Galjee, Energy Director of Nouryon said: “CertifHy ‘green hydrogen’ can play an important role in transport and is also key in the transition to a sustainable chemical industry, where it is widely used as a raw material. This EU certification is an important first step to further develop the market for green hydrogen and provide the basis for the industry to take a leadership role in the transition.”

Nikolas Iwan, managing director at H2 MOBILITY Deutschland said: “The CertifHy ‘green hydrogen’ certificates from Air Products significantly increase the proportion of green hydrogen at our stations. We strongly believe that CertifHy will help to establish an innovative, transparent European market for renewable hydrogen.”

Towards a new Hydrogen market - CertifHy Green Hydrogen Guarantees of Origin are launched

Europe is moving one step forward towards a new and transparent hydrogen market. The CertifHy project“Designing the 1st EU-wide Guarantee of Origin (GO) scheme for Green Hydrogen” issued 75 000+ CertifHy Green and Low Carbon Hydrogen GOs that are available on the market now.

Hydrogen consumers from industry and transport can use renewable energy in their processes and reduce the greenhouse gas footprint by purchasing CertifHy Green or Low Carbon Hydrogen Guarantee of Origins now. CertifHy GOs allow end-users to consume Green and Low Carbon Hydrogen across the EU, regardless of their location. The CertifHy Guarantee of Origin scheme is essential for labelling the origin of the product providing transparency to consumers and creating market pull for Green and Low-carbon hydrogen.

The CertifHy pilot dispatched 75 000+ Green and Low Carbon Guarantees of Origin that are issued into the registry . The four hydrogen producers including the industrial gas companies Air Liquide and Air Products, specialty chemicals company Nouryon, the retailer Colruyt Group and the energy utility Uniper are participating in the pilot and issuing GOs.The objective of the CertifHy pilot is to test the design of the CertifHy scheme, its procedures and operation, the associated costs for the various users, the ICT system as well as other elements. The results will be fed-back and incorporated into the final design of the scheme, expected by March 2019. CertifHy invites existing hydrogen consumers to participate in the pilot and acquire CertifHy GOs. A CertifHy GO allows end-users to proof that the hydrogen originates from renewable and low carbon energy sources. It covers either hydrogen produced from renewable energy (bio, hydro, wind and solar) (defined as ‘Green Hydrogen’) or from non-renewable low carbon energy sources (defined as Non-Renewable Low Carbon Hydrogen). 

The CertifHy Guarantee of Origin is developed in step-by-step consultation with the CertifHy Stakeholder Platform  and its topical Working Groups  bringing together all European stakeholders interested in green and low carbon hydrogen GOs. It is a forum about green hydrogen GOs and the channel to shape the ongoing CertifHy project. Join the CertifHy Stakeholder Platform  and contribute to shaping a new energy market.
