Thyssenkrupp has signed a realization agreement with gas transmission system operators Nowega, OGE and Thyssengas to connect its Duisburg steel plant in Germany to the GET H2 hydrogen pipeline network in 2028 as it seeks to decarbonize its operations.
The GET H2 pipeline project plans to connect green hydrogen production hubs with industrial consumers in the Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia regions.
"With this contract, the hydrogen economy in North Rhine-Westphalia and Germany continues to take shape," the companies said in a statement March 21.
The 135-km pipeline network between Lingen and Gelsenkirchen will be extended to the Duisburg steelworks via a 40-km link from Dorsten. GET H2 in turn will link to the planned national hydrogen pipeline network.
