Amersfoort/The Netherlands – Hycc contracted Kraftanlagen Energies & Services for the basic design and engineering (Feed) of the plant and placed an order with Nel for the supply of the electrolysis stacks. The plant will be operated by Hycc and use Nel’s atmospheric alkaline electrolyzers to produce green hydrogen from renewable power and water. It will be one of the first plants to apply this technology at this scale.

The hydrogen will be used by Skynrg to produce sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), made from industrial byproducts and residue streams, such as used cooking oil. In its pure form, the use of SAF results in 85 % lower carbon emissions compared to fossil jet fuel, across its lifecycle.

Hycc recently received the environmental permit for the project and the company is working towards the final investment decision (FID) in 2024, in close alignment with Skynrg and its partners.
