20 MW HySynergy plant inaugurated in Denmark

Everfuel and Crossbridge Energy Fredericia have inaugurated the 20 MW HySynergy plant in Fredericia, Denmark. The event also marked a historic milestone for Denmark, as the first trailer carrying RFNBO-certified green hydrogen was dispatched to Germany, signalling the country’s first-ever export of green hydrogen.

Developed in collaboration with the Crossbridge Energy Fredericia refinery, HySynergy already supplies green hydrogen for use in the production of liquid fuels. The partnership demonstrates the technical feasibility of integrating green hydrogen into existing refinery operations to reduce CO₂ emissions and marks an important step towards decarbonising industrial processes. TVIS serves as the recipient of surplus heat from the plant, which is used in the local district heating system, further improving overall energy efficiency.

“HySynergy is a symbol of Denmark leading the way in Europe’s green transition. We have now shown that green hydrogen can be produced at industrial scale, delivered to industry – and exported,” said Jacob Krogsgaard, CEO and founder of Everfuel. “For years, Denmark has talked about the potential of green hydrogen. Now we are showing that it is possible in practice, paving the way for a real value chain and, in the coming years, a multiplication of production capacities as the hydrogen pipeline to Germany becomes available.”

HySynergy represents the first step in Everfuel’s long-term ambition to establish more than 2 GW of electrolysis capacity in Denmark by 2035 – contributing to the national target of 20 GW of installed capacity by the same year. In addition to future expansions of the Fredericia site, Everfuel’s plans include Project Frigg, a large-scale facility at Revsing Energy Park near Vejen, designed to supply hydrogen directly to German industrial customers through a dedicated pipeline expected to be operational by 2030.

“For Crossbridge Energy, the collaboration with Everfuel is an important milestone. We already use 35 tonnes of hydrogen per day in our production. That hydrogen is produced from fossil crude oil, but it can be replaced with green hydrogen – and we are already doing so in practice,” said Finn Schousboe, CEO of Crossbridge Energy. “Unfortunately, there is currently no incentive to keep improving. We have shown that we can – now legislation must keep up with developments so we can deliver on Denmark’s major green ambitions.”
