NEOM energy plant first to produce green hydrogen in commercial quantities, says expert.
The hydrogen plant in NEOM, Saudi Arabia’s $500-billion futuristic city, will be the first of its kind to produce green hydrogen at a level that can be sold, according to Alicia Eastman, co-founder and managing director at Intercontinental Energy.
Alicia Eastman, co-founder and managing director at Intercontinental Energy, while speaking at a virtual conference during the MENA Energy Week:
I think NEOM is going to be the first plant to produce green hydrogen in commercial quantities.
Eastman added that Intercontinental Energy is working together with countries in the Middle East to assist them in providing green hydrogen, and to deliver green ammonia.
“Our focus is on large projects. We have signed a memorandum of understanding with Saudi Aramco to make both blue and green hydrogen. I look forward to seeing Aramco materializing their plans in hydrogen,” she further added.
Eastment also made it clear that digital solutions and the adoption of technology are very much needed to go sustainable in the future.
