Green Energies Hellas, is an official member of the European Clean Hydrogen Alliance of the European Commission
Also as a member of the Production Roundtable of the European Clean Hydrogen Alliance, we are committed to advancing the production of "real" green hydrogen.

Current information:
We are now also starting to plan a project in Germany and are looking for strategic partners for it
In our medium-term planning, we are working on the production of green hydrogen in Greece and only use electricity from renewable energies. We obtain the water we need directly from the sea, thereby protecting important freshwater resources.
General basics:
Hydrogen (H2) should become the new petroleum of the near future - But then it should only be green hydrogen, which obtains the required production energy exclusively from renewable projects!
Worldwide, more and more industrial nations rely on it.
Regardless of the use of H2 as clean energy in global road traffic, there is currently an urgently needed rethinking in the field of large-scale industry with regard to the use of the primary energy source.
More and more large corporations, e.g. in the steel industry, the automotive industry, etc. will switch production to the energy carrier H2 in the coming years. Also in order to comply with the adjusted legal bases and thus to secure the preservation of production!
The demand for clean H2 in the world market will increase rapidly in the near future!
Basics of production:
The development and construction of wind energy and PV systems in Greece creates the basis for generating electricity from clean energy and thus enabling the production of green hydrogen.
All renewable energy systems will be developed and built by us. Our partner for the construction of the hydrogen plant comes from Germany and brings an innovation with him = the use of seawater in the production of green hydrogen!
Locations:
We plan and develop the systems at locations with very good foundations for wind and PV systems, as well as good connections to the planned hydrogen system.
The locations for H2 production are selected in such a way that the supply of green energy and water (be it directly from seawater or through seawater desalination) is ensured.
Why in Greece?
As a country in the EU, with the associated security, the existing good infrastructure, as well as the optimal conditions for renewable energies (= over 3,000 hours of sunshine per year and stable wind conditions of at least 7 m / s), Greece is both safe and secure very productive!
Geographically and geopolitically, Greece is in an optimal position to market and transport the green hydrogen produced worldwide.

The following is a report of the Kopernikus projects:
At the beginning of 2020 the federal government will decide on a national hydrogen strategy. It is intended to significantly strengthen German hydrogen research.
Green hydrogen is central to achieving the Paris climate protection goals: With its help, it is possible to transform Germany's largest greenhouse gas producer in a climate-friendly way and at the same time to strengthen Germany as a technology location. Because:
Green hydrogen can be used as fuel for cars. Together with carbon monoxide, it can be converted into climate-friendly fuels that power trucks, ships and planes.
Green hydrogen can fuel industrial furnaces. It also uses fuel cells to heat buildings. Alternatively, methane can be produced from it and carbon dioxide, which can be used as heating gas in private households and industry.
Together with carbon dioxide, green hydrogen is a building block for polymers that the chemical industry urgently needs. For example, products for the plastics sector can be manufactured.
Green hydrogen can be converted into electricity to compensate for fluctuations in the power grid.

Hydrogen color theory
Depending on its origin, hydrogen is called differently - in everyday language one therefore uses colors for the actually colorless gas. Here is an overview:
Gray hydrogen is obtained from fossil fuels. As a rule, during production, natural gas is split into hydrogen and CO2 under heat. The CO2 is then released into the atmosphere unused, thus intensifying the global greenhouse effect: the production of one ton of hydrogen produces around 10 tons of CO2.
Blue hydrogen is gray hydrogen, but its CO2 is captured and stored when it is generated (English: Carbon Capture and Storage, CCS). The CO2 generated during hydrogen production does not get into the atmosphere and hydrogen production can be considered CO2-neutral in the balance sheet.
Green hydrogen is produced by electrolysis of water, with electricity from renewable energies being used exclusively for the electrolysis. Regardless of the electrolysis technology chosen, the production of hydrogen is CO2-free, as the electricity used comes 100% from renewable sources and is therefore CO2-free.
Turquoise hydrogen is hydrogen that was produced via the thermal cracking of methane (methane pyrolysis). Instead of CO2, solid carbon is produced. The prerequisites for the CO2 neutrality of the process are the heat supply of the High-temperature reactor from renewable energy sources, as well as the permanent binding of carbon.
