Video: Provaris Product Development Director Garry Triglavcanin discusses the Concept Design Study
In September we announced the completion of our Concept Design Study for bulk-scale hydrogen export and import compression facilities. The findings of the Study reaffirmed the low energy use and low capital of our compressed hydrogen supply chain for regional marine transport of hydrogen in gaseous form.
The Concept Design Study was the fourth in a series of techno-economic studies developed by Provaris, based on a 540MW capacity reservation export site, producing 10 tonnes of hydrogen per hour (equivalent to 87,000 tpa); with an intra-Europe shipping distance of 1,000 nautical miles and gaseous hydrogen delivered to the customer at 70 barg.
The Study reconfirmed the superior energy efficiency and low capital cost associated with compression for marine transportation of hydrogen, and increased our confidence and understanding that many regional-European sites with a material level of renewable power reservation will significantly benefit from compression, when compared to the alternative of converting hydrogen into ammonia for marine transport. The benefits of compression include delivering more hydrogen in volume, using less capex, and boosting the financial returns to the producer whilst maintaining a highly competitive delivered cost to the customer.
