It will feature 240 MW on-site green hydrogen production using water electrolysis.
The grid connection and the battery energy storage system (BESS) needed for the facility to be fully electrified will be delivered by Hitachi Energy, making sure that operations are stable, reliable, and efficient, while strengthening the Danish grid. The company will also be in charge of the complete electrical system engineering, procurement, installation, and commissioning work.
“Hitachi Energy is the perfect partner for Arcadia eFuels. They are experts in system integration, with experience delivering technology, grid connection, and power conversion solutions, while we specialise in producing eSAF. Their track record in enabling large scale renewable energy integration allows us to build on each of our strengths and achieve project success,” said Amy Hebert, Arcadia eFuels CEO.
The commitment between Hitachi Energy and Arcadia eFuels will ensure the electrical backbone for the facility is in place to support the production of approximately 80 000 tpy of eFuels, including eSAF, avoiding an estimated 260 000 tpy of CO2 emissions.
