The core of the AquaVentus vision

The new AlphaVentus

With AquaSector, the power plant-scale “proof of concept” goes into operation: technical challenges are solved in the pilot project for realizing gigawatt-scale projects. The Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH) currently prepares the “SEN-1” wind priority area in the German Bight for the tender by mid-2022. The consortium of operators and manufacturers successful in the tender will then build the world’s first large-scale offshore hydrogen park – the new AlphaVentus.

With an installed capacity of 300 MW, this produces large quantities of green hydrogen on a central electrolysis platform at the wind farm. Up to 22,000 t of green hydrogen will then be delivered onshore via the central AquaDuctus collection pipeline.

AquaVentus Project family

Future technology for green hydrogen

With the help of the projects’ pioneering technical work, the AquaVentus initiative aims to achieve its ambitious goals by 2035. In the long term, however, the AquaVentus project family’s plans also include integration into a European hydrogen network.
