Proposed 2 GW Danish electrolyzer facility would pipe green hydrogen to German industrial customers

Everfuel A/S has announced a major project proposal for developing up to 2 GW of green hydrogen production capacity at the Revsing Energy Park in Vejen, Denmark. The project, named Frigg, aims to supply hydrogen via pipeline to industrial customers in Germany.

The Frigg project, if approved by the Vejen municipality, will be Everfuel’s first large-scale hydrogen production facility. Everfuel has secured land for the development and is continuing feasibility studies to ensure access to the necessary infrastructure. The facility will be located near the Revsing transformer station and within the area of the hydrogen backbone, making it strategically positioned for efficient production and distribution.

Frigg’s capacity is planned to be expandable to 2 GW, with the potential for direct connections to local renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, as well as integration with local district heating systems. In May, Everfuel signed a Letter of Intent with an undisclosed German industrial customer for an initial supply of up to 10,000 tons of green hydrogen per year. Project Frigg is expected to be the primary source for this supply and other future industrial demands.

Jacob Krogsgaard, CEO of Everfuel, highlighted the significance of the Frigg project in expanding Denmark’s hydrogen production infrastructure. “Frigg will support local employment, create positive ripple effects across the region, and reduce CO2 emissions in Europe. It is a key enabler for our commercial discussions with our LoI-partner and other industrial customers in Germany,” he stated.

The Frigg facility is situated at the intersection of the North-South and East-West hydrogen backbones, expected to be operational by 2028, as announced by Energinet, the Danish TSO. The project’s location will enable rapid scaling according to market demand and critical balancing and redundancy functions in conjunction with the HySynergy project.

Frigg, along with HySynergy and Sif, is expected to meet Everfuel’s strategic ambitions in the DK1 power zone in Jutland, Denmark. This area is advantageous for green hydrogen production due to Denmark’s strong renewable energy position. An analysis by Aurora Energy Research confirms the competitive edge of green hydrogen production in DK1.

Everfuel is dedicated to advancing the Frigg project and will keep stakeholders updated on significant developments. The project’s realization is contingent on continued development and inclusion by the Vejen municipality.
