    HOUSTON — KBR will provide engineering services for an offshore energy storage project in the Dutch North Sea for CrossWind, a joint venture between Shell and Dutch utility Eneco.

    The scope of work involves the FEED for the baseload power hub for the Hollandse Kust (north) offshore wind farm.

    KBR and Shell will co-design and develop facilities to integrate lithium-ion battery storage and green hydrogen electrolysis production at megawatt scale.

    The design should allow production of hydrogen production and electricity storage in periods of high-power production, with hydrogen converted to electricity, via a fuel cell, during spells of lower power generation.

    CrossWind, a joint venture between Shell in the Netherlands and Eneco, have been awarded the tender to build the wind farm subsidy-free. The consortium plans to have Hollandse Kust (noord) operational in 2023 with an installed capacity of 759 MW, generating at least 3.3 TWh per year.
