NEA GREEN

NEA GREEN is the NEUMAN & ESSER company with a clear focus on consulting and services for the upcoming Hydrogen (H2) and Green Gases markets. Overall, the company’s target is to help customers with the decarbonization of their energy or industrial systems, and decentralized applications. NEA GREEN first provides initial consulting and subsequent concept studies. If required, it supports our clients in structuring and financing hydrogen and/or biomethane projects. For example, NEA GREEN develops the business case together with the customer, calculates different scenarios and arranges offtake agreements for the purchase of the produced green gases. This initial process is most often the steppingstone to make projects "bankable", i.e. financeable and thus realizable. 

In cooperation with other NEA GROUP companies, NEA GREEN accompanies its customers in all phases of a project with an integrated solution portfolio: From conceptual design and consulting, through planning and financing, to the construction and operation of e.g., H₂ generation plants, hydrogen refueling Station (HRS) or biomethane (= biogas upgrading) plants and ultimately the marketing of the produced gases. The customer benefits from NEUMAN & ESSER’s competencies along the entire value chain and gets its H2 or green gas application out of one hand.

Integrated solution from a single source:

• Development of a suitable solution concept and design of the overall system
• Support for planning, financing, construction, and operation of the optimally designed plant
• Commercial marketing of the produced gases
