BlueH2 by T.ENTM: Unleashing full blue potential with low-carbon SMR and ATR based hydrogen solutions

Hydrogen (H2) is pivotal for the energy transition. As a global leader in the H2 market with more than 60 yr of experience in production and technologies, Technip Energies offers clients the opportunity to affordably decarbonize existing facilities, power and hard-to-abate industries at a scale needed to meet growing energy demands. 

From technology to design, delivery and beyond, BlueH2 by T.EN™ is a unique suite of fully-integrated low-carbon H2 technologies and EPC solutions. We meet specific decarbonization and performance goals as a single provider.

BlueH2 by T.EN™ offers the best possible levelized cost for blue H2 production with the lowest carbon footprint across any type or scale of plant.

Proprietary ATR technology for large-capacity, ultra-blue H2. Oxidative reforming—auto thermal reforming (ATR) and partial oxydation (POx)—combined with carbon capture technology is a cost-effective way to produce low-carbon H2 at larger-scale facilities (above 600 kNm3/h - 2 GW single train) with up to 99% carbon capture rate.

Early this year, we launched ROXTM for Recuperative OXidative reforming, the most recent ATR based flow scheme combining ATR with our proven TPR(r) (Technip Parallel Reformer) technology and delivering significant performance improvements to the ATR only scheme.

ROXTM provides reduced feedstock and energy consumption with plant compactness resulting in optimized OPEX and CAPEX for lowest LCOH. Our solution combines proven technology with solid reliability, high efficiency and flexible carbon capture technologies, delivering best-in-class performance.

Industry-leading steam methane reforming (SMR) technology. SMR is well-suited to small- to medium-capacity facilities with unrivaled performance in more than 275 H2 plants. We can deliver top-fired reformers for H2 plants up to 300,000 Nm3/h (1 GW) in a single unit with optimized CAPEX and the lowest plot requirements without compromising OPEX.

THE VALUE UNLEASHED BY BLUEH2 BY T.EN™

BlueH2 by T.ENTM  gives clients access to a complete portfolio of technology and project delivery solutions to meet the H2 requirements of existing assets or grassroot facilities.

  • Up to 99% carbon emissions capture

BlueH2 by T.EN™ offers 99% reduction in the carbon footprint compared to the traditional H2 process – from ~10 down to below 0.1 kg CO2/kg of H2.

  • More than 99% operational reliability

Our H2 plants have proven reliability and demonstrate onstream availability of more than 99% for uninterrupted H2 production.

  • Better yield and the lowest levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH)

Our solution provides maximum H2 yield, minimum energy demand (fuel + power), and highly efficient carbon avoidance and carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) techniques to arrive at the lowest levelized cost of (blue) H2.

  • Improved plant performance and productivity

BlueH2 by T.EN™  provides added value to clients by providing plant performance guarantees from design to engineering, procurement and construction (EPC), schedule efficiencies by eliminating technology and delivery interface and optimized productivity through asset lifecycle support.

The optimum solution for any type or scale or H2 application. BlueH2 by T.EN™ comprises the proven building blocks to deliver the optimal low-carbon H2 solution, regardless of plant feedstock, reforming type, plant capacity or industrial application.

In addition to serving traditional low-carbon and blue H2 for refining and ammonia businesses, we are evolving our technology and its application to decarbonize industries including steel, cement, power, olefins and LNG as well as facilitating clean energy carriers. As the energy transition gathers pace, BlueH2 by T.EN™ is playing a powerful part as we continue to expand our decarbonization solutions.

A single partner for complete low-carbon H2 solutions. As the energy transition gathers pace, BlueH2 by T.EN™ is playing a powerful role as we continue to expand our decarbonization solutions. We combine proprietary technology with more than 60 yr of EPC project delivery experience to provide the best-levelized cost of H2. From feasibility studies and technology selection to turnkey plant delivery and startup, we take responsibility throughout the entire process to deliver cost, performance and schedule certainty with flexible flow schemes to meet changing decarbonization and operational needs.
