Topsoe, a global leader in carbon emission reduction technologies, has reached a key milestone in the form of environmental permit from the Danish Environmental Agency. The approval from the Danish Environmental Agency means, that Topsoe’s electrolyser factory lives up to both Danish and EU environmental regulations and standards.
This includes using the best available technical solutions, introduction of emission cleaning systems, proper waste management plans, high efficiency in use of power and water, no negative impacts on local natural habitats or wildlife, and more. The environmental approval further allows the factory to enter into commissioning stage and powering up equipment.
Kim Hedegaard, CEO Power-to-X at Topsoe, said: “We are very satisfied with this stamp of approval from the Danish Environmental Agency. The factory, which will produce SOEC electrolysis units will mean a solid contribution to the green hydrogen economy, and this permit confirms that we’re on track building a factory adhering to all appropriate regulatory and sustainability standards.”
