Projects
Aquarius Water Electrolyser - Norway
We’re planning to build one of Norway's first hydrogen plants based on water electrolysis at Rafnes in Vestfold and Telemark. The project has secured initial funding from Enova and underscores our commitment to cutting-edge sustainable solutions.
ChemCH2ange – Germany
As part of our development of European hydrogen projects we are looking to build an ambitious new renewable hydrogen plant at our Köln site, which would cut CO2 emissions by more than 100,000 tonnes per year.
PtMA (Power-to-Methanol) – Belgium
PROJECT IN STANDBY - The project formed part of a consortium which aimed to produce 8000 tonnes of e-methanol, a sustainable alternative to traditional methanol, by combining captured CO2 with hydrogen generated from renewable electricity. It was cancelled as a result of economic challenges and high energy costs (see announcement here).
INEOS is currently reviewing the original project’s scope, as we continue to see the potential of renewable hydrogen and carbon circularity to produce green methanol – which will play a key role in the decarbonization of the chemical industry chain and provides a viable green fuel option for heavy duty transport.
Project Acorn – UK
We have partnered with the Acorn CCS project to work together to support Scotland's first carbon capture and storage system, with the aim of decreasing Scotland's CO2 emissions by more than 50% compared to 2005, with scope for significant additional volumes beyond that.
HyBay – UK
As part of our development of low carbon hydrogen, we are working to purify and compress existing low-carbon hydrogen supply to fuel transport in the UK and drive the country’s green transition to Net Zero by 2050.
H2 for mobility – France
Partnering with HyMove our ambition is to boost hydrogen-powered transport across Eastern France. We are working with mobility to explore a new hydrogen purification and compression system at our Tavaux facility, with an aim to supply road transport from 2026.
Barge Retrofit - Belgium
We are developing Europe's first hydrogen powered barge for bulk liquid chemical transport. Working in partnership with the Netherlands based VT Group (Verenigde Tankrederij) the aim is to retrofit a bulk liquid chemical barge to run on hydrogen.
HyNet – UK
We're part of the HyNet consortium, which want to create the UK’s first hydrogen pipeline network spanning 350km, so that hydrogen can be produced, safely stored and distributed to where it’s needed. We are playing a key role in the development of the underground hydrogen storage facilities project. This project could reduce CO2 emissions by 10 million tons every year by 2030.
