Hydrogen Terminal Braunschweig

Lower Saxony, Germany

The “Hydrogen Terminal Braunschweig” research project was launched in 2020 by Steinbeis Innovation Centre energieplus (SIZ) and the Technical University of Braunschweig. In particular, it aims to pool expertise along the H2 value chain and to realise important research projects in this area.

    About the project

    Participation in the “Hydrogen Terminal Braunschweig” project is an important milestone for STOFF2, as its ZZE is to be installed in an industrial environment for the first time worldwide. STOFF2 will be responsible for the technical design of the for the research project at SIZ. In particular, this will involve the interaction of the ZZE electrolyzer with the existing power and H2 infrastructure on site. In a second step, the project partners intend to commission the designed STOFF2 electrolyzer on site.

    The green hydrogen will be produced on site with electrolyzers from STOFF2 as well as Enapter. The produced GH2 will be used in test benches for research work as well as injected into the local H2 gas network to supply other external consumers such as the Fraunhofer Project Centre for Energy Storage and Systems (Fraunhofer ZESS) and the Lower Saxony Research Centre for Automotive Engineering (NFF). At the “Hydrogen Terminal Braunschweig” site, the hydrogen produced is also used to operate a hydrogen refuelling station for heavy goods vehicles with the support of a compressor from Maximator.

    Collaboration for the next level of green hydrogyn.

    “In this project, we want to integrate our electrolyzer technology into an existing infrastructure for electricity and hydrogen as well as a common control technology. I find that very exciting.”
