The Challenge
Tractebel’s mission in the H2BE project is to support the development of a large-scale blue hydrogen production plant with integrated carbon capture and transportation. This initiative is a key step toward reducing industrial emissions and accelerating the transition to a low-carbon economy.
The Solution
We provided a comprehensive suite of engineering services, including design and technology reviews, geotechnical investigations, safety and demolition studies, and transportability assessments via waterways. This holistic approach ensured that all technical and logistical aspects were addressed from the outset.
The Impact
A multidisciplinary team with deep expertise in local regulations, market dynamics, and environmental conditions enabled effective project derisking. Tractebel’s involvement laid a solid foundation for the successful realisation of this strategic hydrogen infrastructure.
