Bilfinger's key role in diverse hydrogen markets
Hydrogen transportation and storage: The installation of onsite hydrogen and CO2 sequestration facilities for refineries is one of the quickest ways to reduce this environmental challenge. Not only can users guarantee supply, but they can also reduce transport costs and emissions and provide secondary outlets for hydrogen as vehicular use increases, creating greater demand for refueling stations. Green hydrogen is the ultimate goal; however, blue and gray hydrogen will have their part to play in the interim transitional period as the industry moves toward environmental targets. In a bid to diversify hydrogen transportation beyond pipelines, Bilfinger explores alternative methods like Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carriers and ammonia. Moreover, hydrogen storage, similar to natural gas today, is poised to become a cornerstone of the industry. To ensure a stable hydrogen supply chain, large-scale hydrogen buffering in underground cavern storages becomes essential. Bilfinger offers comprehensive services, from design, construction and maintenance of such storage and re-injection facilities. Green technologies integration: In pursuit of net-zero ambitions, Bilfinger collaborates with clients to integrate green technologies such as solar and wind into their onsite energy generation portfolio. This proactive approach not only reduces environmental impact but also enhances energy sustainability, aligning client operations with the principles of responsible energy consumption.
