Snam, ITM Power To Develop Green Hydrogen Projects

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Renewables Now.

Points from the article.

• Snam will pump £30 million into ITM Power.
• Snam are planning up to 100 MW of green hydrogen projects.

In Joint Venture With Linde AG And £38M Strategic Investment, I asked “How Much Hydrogen Would A 5 MW Electrolyser Create In A Day?”

• I gave the answer as 2.182 tonnes of hydrogen, so multiplying up by twenty gives 43.6 tonnes of hydrogen.
• In a Wikipedia entry called Renewable Energy in Italy, it is stated that Italy produced 51.5 GW of renewable energy in 2015.
• The UK produced 30 GW of renewable energy in 2015, but our capacity is growing fast.

I suspect Italy will have plenty enough renewable electricity to supply 100 MW for hydrogen.

As iTM Power are building a factory to manufacture one GW of electrolysers per year, I suspect they can provide their part of the hasrdware for the Italian job.
