This particular area in the Northern Netherlands is the first one in Europe to benefit from a subsidy for developing a green hydrogen chain. The location was chosen strategically because it’s situated close to a major freight train station, an international freight harbor, and also close to Germany.
Hyzon’s largest production site opened earlier this year in Winschoten, the Netherlands. This is why government support is still needed at this point. “ Hydrogen could be the perfect solution,” King Willem-Alexander stated, but large-scale production and use of the green version is still only at the beginning. The main focus of the symposium was green hydrogen, meaning hydrogen that is produced sustainably, through the use of solar power or wind energy, instead of natural gas – hence the title of the event. The King opened the symposium called “Winds Meets Gas,” where over 400 specialists from the energy sector got together for a two-day event. The American company recently attended a symposium on energy transition, which took place in Groningen, in the Netherlands, where the King of the Netherlands himself, King Willem-Alexander, got to try out a Hyzon hydrogen-powered truck. For decades, Hyzon has been researching fuel cell innovations, and it claims it has developed the highest-density fuel-cell stack on the market, validated by third-party testing authorities. Hyzon Motors is a New York-based fuel cell mobility company, but its operations expand across the globe, including in the Netherlands.
