About AquaVentus
The green energy revolution begins in the North Sea
AquaVentus’ visionary project sets standards and is unique in the energy landscape of Germany and Europe.
The initiative is made up of highly innovative organizations and research institutions as well as leading international companies that are proclaiming a new era of climate-friendly energy with the production of green hydrogen at sea.
The overarching goal of AquaVentus is to install 10 GW of green hydrogen generation capacity from offshore wind energy in the North Sea by 2035 and to establish an associated transport infrastructure.
The initiative comprises numerous coordinated sub-projects along the value chain:
The development of offshore wind turbines with integrated hydrogen production (AquaPrimus), a large-scale offshore hydrogen park (AquaSector), a central offtake pipeline (AquaDuctus), and a research platform (AquaCampus).
