Everfuel and Hy24 JV notified of increased Danish Power-to-X tender award
(With reference to stock exchange release dated 27 October about Everfuel and Hy24 A/S JV notified as marginal winner of the Danish Power-to-X tender for production and supply of green hydrogen.)
Herning, Denmark, 20 November 2023 - Everfuel Hy24 A/S is pleased to announce that the Joint Venture, as the marginal winner of the Danish Power-to-X tender for green hydrogen production and supply, has been notified of an increase to the support amount offered by Danish Authorities. The increased offer has a value of DKK 211 million (€28,3 million).
The increase comes after another tender participant was unable to meet the tender contract requirements.
The Danish Power-to-X tender’s built-in subsidy is provided as support for operating expenses and is recognised per kilogram of green hydrogen produced. The subsidy will run for ten years and is dependent on the operational performance of the project. The subsidy structure supplements the JV's strategy to develop hydrogen production capacity. The offer is conditional of Everfuel and Hy24 accepting the contractual conditions and the final agreement with the Danish Energy Authorities. The JV will provide further information if it decides to accept the support offer.
"The PtX tender is a confirmation of the Danish government's commitment to developing the national hydrogen production and export potential. The Everfuel Hy24 JV is well positioned to pursue this opportunity as part of our joint strategy of making green hydrogen commercially available in key European markets," says Jacob Krogsgaard, founder and CEO of Everfuel.
