Putting the brakes on climate change and meeting the challenges of the energy transition is now more urgent than ever. An experienced team of energy experts from Tractebel Engineering GmbH and offshore engineers from Tractebel Overdick GmbH are therefore developing a unique concept for an offshore platform. This makes it possible to produce environmentally friendly
The innovative offshore platform can enable a number of tasks to be solved simultaneously. The proportion of ut seasonal fluctuations in renewable energy sources.
Enormous potential
The role of Hydrogen (H2) is gaining importance in the energy mix, because it serves as an efficient form of storing energy and is easily transportable. Existing infrastructure can be used for the purpose. H2 is used to power gas turbines and fuel cells, can be used along with natural gas in private households and is also a key industrial raw material. It can be used as a CO2-neutral reducing agent to substitute coke in steel production.
In large-scale offshore wind farms Tractebel sees enormous potential for CO2-neutral production of formers and desalinisation plants.
Growing flexibility
The means of transport for the energy generated in this way, via pipeline or ship, are flexible. They provide alternatives to the contentious or overloaded cable lines he design of the system and the efficiency of the plants. The Tractebel concept includes the appropriate solutions for cost-optimised designs and efficient operation.
Tractebel is in a position to undertake all the engineering services for every stage of planning, from the feasibility study through to the detailed design. Moreover, as part of the ENGIE Group, the company is in a perfect position to deliver and operate offshore H2 platforms as an EPC supplier and to offer solutions for large-scale storage.
