German energy service provider EWE has selected compressor specialist Neuman & Esser (NEA) to supply critical infrastructure for one of Germany’s largest upcoming electrolyzer facilities—a 320-megawatt green hydrogen plant in Emden, set to begin production in 2027. The project is a major component of the Clean Hydrogen Coastline initiative aimed at accelerating industrial-scale hydrogen deployment.
Under the contract, NEA will deliver:
Three dry-running, horizontal, 8-crank, 5-stage compressors
Equipment classified as size 320, designed for high efficiency and reliability in hydrogen processing
These compressors will enable seamless integration of the produced hydrogen into downstream storage and transportation networks, forming a vital link in the hydrogen value chain.
“With this order for the compressors, we are taking another step towards industrial hydrogen production,” said Stefan Dohler, CEO of EWE AG. “Emden offers the ideal conditions with existing infrastructure and a strong wind energy base. Together with strong partners such as NEA, we are driving the decarbonization of the energy system.”
NEA, known for its advanced gas compression and engineering capabilities, views the project as a landmark in hydrogen development.
“The development of a high-performance compressor solution for the electrolyzer in Emden shows how important innovative technology is for the success of the hydrogen economy,” said Jens Wulff, Managing Director of NEA Deutschland. “Together, we are actively shaping the future of energy.”
This collaboration underscores Germany’s growing momentum in green hydrogen production, pairing industrial expertise with renewable energy integration to scale a climate-friendly energy future.
