Hydrogen in production

1830_167_30_bild.webp

Hydrogen is the path to decarbonizing the manufacturing sector. Many processes are impossible to electrify, which is why the use of green hydrogen is the best alternative to fossil fuels.

Steel production is just the best-known example of using green hydrogen for decarbonization. Many manufacturing industries operate processes that are extremely energy-intensive.
Hydrogen will play an increasingly larger role in process heat and other applications in the future.
We analyze your specific initial situation and accompany you into a decarbonized future.

Process heat
Process heat is usually provided by natural gas. Hydrogen offers a CO2-neutral alternative.
Convert excess electricity
If a PV system is available, surpluses can be converted into hydrogen and used in production processes.

Logistical coordination

MSR-Innovations coordinates the components of a plant and the underlying logistical coordination measures during the implementation phase as a planning partner. This includes the organization in terms of time and place as well as the planning of access routes and checking building accessibility.

Approval process

We understand the complexities involved in the permitting process for hydrogen projects and pride ourselves on being able to successfully overcome these challenges.

Component compatibility

The complexity of an energy system for storing electricity and hydrogen is high. We work with a large number of manufacturers for various components in order to develop an optimal overall system from the best individual modules on the market. The interfaces of the different units pose a challenge, which we can effectively solve with the integration of the higher-level energy management system.

Funding acquisition

Thanks to our experience, we know which funding opportunities exist and which contact to address. In addition, we regularly explore new opportunities for application-related funding.

Coordination in the implementation phase

During the implementation of construction measures, various manufacturers, installers and planning companies work together. MSR-Innovations ensures the coordination of all parties and smooth processing.

Conversion during ongoing operations

Conversion or expansion of plants during operation sometimes entails increased planning efforts and replacement measures. Control or energy supply components have to be replaced temporarily, or ongoing operation has to be specially coordinated at times.

Conversion and modernization of existing systems

When rebuilding existing equipment, various friction points can occur. Are the new components compatible with the old ones? Does it make sense to completely renew parts of the plant? What software is used? It is important to carry out a detailed inventory and to sound out the possibilities.
