Lhyfe’s BOxHy project, which aims to oxygenate the Baltic Sea through green hydrogen production, has been approved by the UN as part of the Ocean Decade. A United Nations initiative covering the period 2021-2030.

This is a great accolade for the green hydrogen producer. You can read our articles about Lhyfe’s approach to reoxygenate the oceans here and here. In fact, Lhyfe is part of a project in the Baltic Sea called BOxHy (Baltic Sea Oxygenation and the Super-Green Hydrogen Economy). The project has just been approved as part of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030).

“We are proud that it has endorsed our BOxHy project in this framework. At the same time, we are continuing our work to make offshore hydrogen production a reality by 2026,” said Lhyfe founder Matthieu Guesné.

Coordinated by Flexens and supported by the Baltic Sea Action Plan (BSAP) Fund, the BOxHy project is currently studying suitable coastal locations for the pilot study on the reoxygenation of marine ecosystems using oxygen produced during water electrolysis. The BOxIn (Baltic Sea Pilot for Pure Oxygen Injection) project will be implemented in the next phase of the project.
