Open season for planned hydrogen import terminal

20.05.2026

WILHELMSHAVEN Uniper Hydrogen has launched an open season for capacity allocation at its planned hydrogen import terminal in Wilhelmshaven. In future, the terminal is set to enable the import of hydrogen via ammonia. After the ammonia is unloaded, the compound of nitrogen and hydrogen will be split on site in an industrial-scale ammonia cracker, and the hydrogen fed into Germany’s hydrogen core network. Suitable rail loading capacity for the safe transport of ammonia by rail will also be available thereafter. With an annual import capacity of up to 2.6 million tonnes of ammonia—equivalent to around 350,000 tonnes of hydrogen—the project is an important component of Germany’s future hydrogen infrastructure. Interested parties are requested to register for the open season and submit the required documents for creditworthiness and identity checks (KYC) by 15 June 2026 by email (h2-terminal-whv@uniper.energy) in order to receive further information on participation conditions and timelines.
