The Sande Hybrid Energy Park already includes the Sande Wind Farm and is currently being expanded to house a ground-mounted solar power generating capacity. Upon completion, expected early next year, the hybrid system will have an overall capacity of more than 120 MW.
Salzgitterās long-term plan for virtually carbon-neutral steel production envisages the use of green hydrogen. Thus, the agreement also includes the option to procure hydrogen produced locally.
In May, Salzgitter inked a pact with German energy company EWE to offtake green hydrogen to support the decarbonisation of steel production.
