Abstract: Project HydroGenEration investigates co location of offshore wind power, Hydro Pneumatic Energy Storage (HPES) with a Hydrogen (H 2 ) production unit (HPU) and its storage system for use as a fuel by seagoing vessels, thus helping decarbonise the maritime transport sector. Wind power plants generate green, yet intermittent electricity and can supply an offshore H2 production unit; but the latter would benefit from electrical power stabilisation. Energy storage decouples the electrical demand from the supply, thus smoothening variability. This R&I project investigates the synergies and performance of an offshore green hydrogen production concept system operating under Central Mediterranean wind conditions.
