๐ŸŒย eFuelution, the Green Development Arm of Riverlake, Develops Blueprint for Hydrogen Hub in Curaรงao

27/05/2025

Weโ€™re excited to share that eFuelution recently completed a spatial blueprint study for the onshore infrastructure needed to support Floating Offshore Wind and Green Hydrogen (and derivatives) production and export in Curaรงao.
With some of the worldโ€™s highest offshore wind capacity factors, the Caribbean Seaโ€”and Curaรงao in particularโ€”has strong potential to become a key player in the global hydrogen economy.

As a knowledge partner of NLHydrogen and part of the Buccaneer Delft Maritime & Energy Accelerator, eFuelution conducted this study with the support of the governments of Curaรงao and The Netherlands. Commissioned by RVO (Netherlands Enterprise Agency), and building on TNOโ€™s 2023 analysis of 1, 5, and 10 GW scenarios for Floating Offshore Wind, our work mapped the land required to process offshore wind energy into electricity and convert it into Green Hydrogen, e-Methanol, e-SAF, and Ammoniaโ€”for local use and export to the Netherlands.

This blueprint is a key step toward unlocking Curaรงaoโ€™s sustainable energy potential.
