Dutch offshore wind farm developer CrossWind, a joint venture between Shell (80%) and Eneco (20%), has awarded Fores Engineering a contract for Detailed Engineering, Procurement, Assembly, onshore Yard Integration and Commissioning Assistance of the Electrolyser package.
The contract is for the assembly of a 2.5 MW Offshore Electrolyser Package and its associated Balance of Plant (including water treatment plant, hydrogen purification system, and control and telecommunications systems) delivered in collaboration with Elogen.
The package is scheduled for installation in 2024 on the “Base Load Power Hub” (BLPH) platform, currently under construction at the Rosetti Marino construction yard in Marina di Ravenna (Italy).
