JUPITER 1000

  • Project Description

    The Jupiter 1000 project is the first industrial demonstrator of Power to Gas with a power rating of 1 MWe for electrolysis and a methanation process with carbon capture. Green hydrogen will be produced using two technologies of electrolysers (500kW Alkaline and 500kW PEM) fed by 100% of renewable energy. The installation will be based on an innovative methanation technology (H2 fed by one electrolyser of 500kW) and CO2 will be captured on a nearby industrial site. In the light of the performance levels shown by the demonstrator, GRTgaz and its partners will work on future technical and economic standards of a full-sized installation of this type. Over the longer term, the idea is to launch the Power to Gas activity in France. Between 20 and 50 TWh of electricity could converted into gas per year could be produced each year using the Power to Gas system by 2050.
