Description

Northern Ireland (NI) Water would like to run an Innovation partnership approach to appoint a Partner to explore the opportunities with treated water released from NI Water’s Waste Water Treatment Works (WWTWs) and whether this could be used as a feedstock to produce green hydrogen using an electrolyser. NI Water proposes to establish an Innovation Partnership to appoint a Partner for a Demonstrator Project as part of the initial phase to: • design, build, commission, operate and maintain an at-scale demonstrator for an innovative oxygen and hydrogen ecosystem at one of NI Water’s wastewater works; and • support it to run live and at scale for at least 6 months. If successful, NI Water would want the option to be able to work with the Partner to develop other facilities to support the production of hydrogen to fuel a fleet of vehicles and to optimally deploy the oxygen in its wastewater treatment processes. NI Water expects this will pave the way for a business case attracting investors in a portfolio of further electrolyser opportunities across NI Water’s WWTWs and Water Treatment Works (WTW) sites.

Total Quantity or Scope

• design, build, commission, operate and maintain an at-scale demonstrator for an innovative oxygen and hydrogen ecosystem at one of NI Water’s wastewater works; and • support it to run live and at scale for at least 6 months.
