Speyer.
What?
Relocation & expansion of the existing test facility to demonstrate the overall process.
The German government's goal of achieving greenhouse gas neutrality by 2045 emphasizes the importance of sector coupling and the development of a hydrogen economy. Our joint project supports these goals by researching decentralized hydrogen production from biogenic residues using our patented bhyo hydrogen technology.
When?
2024 to 2027

Our test facility.
Climate-responsive future.
Our demonstration project is an important step for us in making a contribution to climate protection and the energy industry of the future. The test plant itself will be used to further develop the technology and determine optimum biomass flows. In addition, the separation of carbon dioxide in various processes is being tested and the processing options examined. For us, the capture and conversion of CO2 is an essential building block in the resource-saving and efficient use of the environment.
Schedule.
The joint project, funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection, was launched last year after we received the funding approval in winter 2023. A major milestone was celebrated in summer 2024 with the ground-breaking ceremony. The plant will go into operation for the first time at the beginning of 2025 and will be used until the end of 2026 as part of the funding project to test various biomass streams and further develop the technology. The separation of CO₂ will also be tested as part of various research packages.

Our partners.
The project benefits from close cooperation with leading institutions and companies. Our partners, which include the DBFZ, DBI Gas- und Umwelttechnik GmbH, the Fraunhofer Institute ISI, Stadtwerke Speyer and TH Bingen, make a decisive contribution to the success of our efforts to create an economically viable and ecologically sustainable hydrogen economy with their expertise and resources.
Supported by the BMWK.
Project BioH2 is supported with funds from the 7th Energy Research Program of the Federal Republic of Germany by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK). With this project, we hope to make a contribution to sector coupling and to achieving greenhouse gas neutrality by 2045.
The BMWK's commitment enables us to drive research and development forward.
