Baker Hughes (BKR) Wins Contract to Supply Hydrogen Compressors
Read MoreHide Full Article
Baker Hughes Company (BKR - Free Report) recently received a contract from TERNA to supply gas turbines and compressors capable of operating on a mixture of natural gas and hydrogen for a new compression station to serve the Greek domestic gas market.
Baker Hughes will provide three compression trains, which include three NovaLT12 hydrogen-ready gas turbines and three PCL compressors. The turbo-compression technology has been designed to support the compression station, which has a capacity to transport up to 10% hydrogen.
In 2020, Baker Hughes teamed up with energy infrastructure network provider, Snam, to launch the NovaLT12 gas turbine to transport hydrogen-gas blends in its pipeline network in Italy. NovaLT12 allows for blends of 5-100% hydrogen.
The compression station is expected to start operating in 2024. The facility is anticipated to contribute to European Union (EU) Hydrogen Strategy objectives to accelerate the development of clean hydrogen in order to achieve a carbon-neutral energy system by 2050.
Baker Hughes has extensive experience in developing and supplying turbomachinery equipment to compress, transport and utilize hydrogen. The company’s portfolio involves advanced compressors, gas turbines, valves, centrifugal pumps, non-metallic pipes, hydrogen sensors, monitoring and diagnostics. It involves clean, integrated power solutions to generate power with hydrogen and hydrogen blends.
Technology is a key driver of the renewable energy transition. Baker Hughes’ climate technology solutions help customers in their transition to decarbonizing operations. The project could be significant progress for the Greek hydrogen value chain and the wider Europe market with the widespread adoption of low-carbon hydrogen.
