Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and Friesen Elektra Green Energy AG have launched Project Anker, a green hydrogen production facility in Sande, Lower Saxony, Germany
Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), through its Energy Transition Fund (CI ETF I), and Friesen Elektra Green Energy AG have initiated Project Anker, a green hydrogen production facility in Sande, Germany. The project is scheduled to have an electrolysis capacity of 400 megawatts, with plans to expand capacity to 800 megawatts at a later stage.
Project Anker is strategically located near Wilhelmshaven, an important energy and industrial hub, and near the future German hydrogen core network. It is projected to produce 80,000 tons of green hydrogen annually, which will benefit key German industries including steel and chemicals, as well as the transport sector.
Project Anker will be powered by renewable energy from the grid, supported by offshore and onshore wind, as well as solar energy. By s
