Linde announces $2bn in Canada’s ‘largest’ clean hydrogen site, powering Dow’s Path2Zero

Linde will invest $2bn to build what it believes to be the largest clean hydrogen production facility in Canada, marking its largest-ever single investment.

 

Unveiled on 27th August, the Alberta-based clean hydrogen and atmospheric gases facility will supply Dow’s Fort Saskatchewan’s Path2Zero project.

 

The complex will use autothermal reforming, combined with Linde’s HISORP® carbon capture technology, to produce clean hydrogen. It will also recover hydrogen contained in off-gases from Dow’s ethylene cracker.

 

During the first phase, Linde will supply clean hydrogen, nitrogen, and other services to Dow’s integrated ethylene cracker and derivatives site. In addition to supplying the Net Zero project, it will also supply existing and new industrial customers in the region.

 

Start-up of the plant is scheduled for start-up in 2028 and the complex will capture carbon dioxide emissions for sequestration in excess of two million metric tonnes each year.

 

Sanjiv Lamba, CEO of Linde, said the project aligns with the company’s strategy of developing high-quality projects with secured off-take.

 

“Our technology, experience, and execution are enabling the transition to a cleaner economy. We are proud to partner with Dow in its mission to decarbonise its Fort Saskatchewan site and are appreciative of the support of the Province of Alberta and the Federal Government.”

 

The Dow Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero project is a $6.5bn project, excluding governmental incentives and subsidies, that includes an ethylene cracker and increasing polyethylene capacity by two million tonnes per annum as well as retrofitting the site’s existing cracker to Net Zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

 

To achieve Net Zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions, the Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero project will deploy Linde’s air separation and autothermal reformer technology to convert the site’s cracker off-gas to hydrogen, which will be used as a clean fuel to supply the site’s furnaces.

Jim Fitterling, Chair and CEO of Dow, said, “Having support from collaborators and partners across the value chain is essential. We’re glad to have Linde as a partner on this industry-leading project.”
