Wind, water, sun and hydrogen.

"The Sihwa Lake Tidal Power plant, operated by Korea Water Resource Corp. (K-water), which was completed in 2011, is the world’s largest, with total power output capacity of 254 megawatts.

This tidal power plant generates 552 gigawatt-hours of electricity annually with the natural ebb and flow of the ocean. According to K-water, the power is supplied to nearby cities.

The tidal power station alone reduces carbon emissions by 315,000 tons a year.

At its site in Herzogenburg, Lower Austria, the company is investing in a hydrogen plant that runs exclusively on 100% green electricity. A photovoltaic system with an output of 1.5 megawatts (MW) on the roofs provides the necessary energy and supplies the electrolysers for the production of green hydrogen. The company intends to use this for its own fleet as well as to make it available to external partners. The fully integrated energy concept will supply the entire site in the future.
