Ørsted and ITM Power explore different approach to integrating offshore wind and hydrogen

By Nadja Skopljak Ørsted and ITM Power are working on a design concept to integrate hydrogen electrolysers into offshore wind turbines.

The project proposes an electrolyser placed in the turbine tower or very near it, directly electrically connected to the DC link in the turbine, with power flow control and water supplied to it.

In this scenario, energy in the form of hydrogen will be transported to shore by an underwater or underground pipe network.

According to ITM Power, the concept presents an opportunity to reduce overall costs, as hydrogen pipes cost less per kilometer than power cables, and the efficiency of
