About
Klimahafen Gelsenkirchen is a renewable energy company headquartered in Gelsenkirchen, Germany specializing in Hydrogen.
Klimahafen Gelsenkirchen is a collaborative initiative bringing together companies from the Gelsenkirchen city port and surrounding region, coordinated by Wissenschaftspark Gelsenkirchen Projekte gGmbH. The initiative leverages the port's unique central location at the intersection of transport routes and gas pipelines to accelerate economic transformation toward climate neutrality. Its pilot projects focus on converting process heat generation in energy-intensive industries to hydrogen-rich fuel gas and green hydrogen. The initiative conducts comprehensive CO2 footprint analyses across upstream and downstream value chains, supports infrastructure development for hydrogen distribution and fueling stations, and facilitates knowledge-sharing among participating companies. Key projects include a 20 MW electrolyser (BImSchG-permitted for VoltH2), partnerships with companies like TRIMET Aluminium SE for hydrogen-based production, and research on hybrid process heat generation to stabilize the energy system.
