PARIS – TechnipFMC is pursuing a pilot project for the Deep Purple green hydrogen offshore energy system.
The company is leading a consortium looking to construct and test the system, with €9 million ($11 million) of support recently pledged by Innovation Norway.
Deep Purple will use offshore wind energy to produce hydrogen from seawater, with the hydrogen stored subsea for later use to provide renewable energy on-demand.
The consortium, which includes Vattenfall, Repsol, ABB, NEL, DNV GL, UMOE and Slåttland, plans to use the pilot to prepare the system for large-scale offshore commercial use.
The program also covers development and testing of a control and advisory system and a dynamic process simulator.
