HyCC unveils H2Next green hydrogen initiative in Rotterdam
HyCC has announced the construction of H2Next, a sizable green hydrogen facility in Rotterdam. At the World Hydrogen Summit in Rotterdam, the announcement was made.
HyCC has unveiled plans for H2Next, a major green hydrogen plant in Rotterdam, set to produce 25,000 tons annually to cut emissions in local industry and transport. The facility will supply clean hydrogen to other important industrial zones throughout Northwest Europe. The project aims for hydrogen production by 2030, with a final investment decision expected by 2028.
HyCC has obtained a location for the plant at the first hydrogen conversion park on the Maasvlakte in partnership with the Port of Rotterdam Authority. Reliable access to renewable energy is ensured by this advantageous location, which is close to the anticipated landing sites for multiple large offshore wind farms.
H2Next is anticipated to produce about 25,000 tons of green hydrogen per year once it is up and running. The main purpose of this production is to lower carbon emissions from nearby refineries, the chemical industry, and transportation-related activities in the Rotterdam port area.
The facility will also be able to supply clean hydrogen to other important industrial zones throughout Northwest Europe by integrating the Delta Rhine Corridor with the national hydrogen backbone.
The project's feasibility study is presently nearing its conclusion. HyCC is about to start producing hydrogen by 2030 and make a final investment decision by 2028.

In addition, PPG's environmental product declaration (EPD) process has been certified by the International EPD system, the world's largest EPD publisher. PPG's tools for measuring product carbon footprints and life cycle assessments have been validated to ISO standards by WAP Sustainability Consulting. Its environmental product declaration (EPD) process is now certified by the International EPD system. These third-party verifications enhance sustainability reporting, speed up delivery, and support green building goals. PCFs measure the total greenhouse gas emissions associated with a product's life cycle, from raw material extraction to end-of-life disposal. LCAs evaluate the environmental impacts associated with all stages of a product's life cycle. An EPD discloses the environmental impacts of a product throughout its life cycle, from raw material extraction to disposal. 'Having third-party verified LCA, PCF and EPD processes enable our customers to utilize trusted sustainability product information for their reporting, procurement decisions, or to qualify for green building certifications,' said Shen Tian, PPG global manager, product sustainability. 'These capabilities play an important role in meeting our goal to be our customers' first choice partner for paints, coatings and specialty products.'
