Denmark’s minister for climate, energy & utilities, Dan Jørgensen, has led the ground-breaking ceremony of H2RES, the first demo project to make green hydrogen from renewables led by state-owned utility Orsted.

It will also be the first project to produce hydrogen from offshore wind turbines, as it will link a 2MW onshore electrolyser with a pair of 3.6MW Siemens Gamesa offshore wind turbines at Avedøre Holme on the outskirts of Copenhagen.
