Early engineering consultancy for P2X plants

Tailored engineering and consultancy services

At ANDRITZ, we offer specialized early engineering consultancy services for Power-to-X (P2X) plants. One of our core expertise lies in conducting planning and feasibility studies that support robust business case evaluations and successful EPC tendering.

Our early engineering approach is structured into three distinct phases: FEL-1* (Conceptual Design), FEL-2 (Pre-FEED), and FEL-3 (FEED). Each stage serves a clear purpose with defined scopes and deliverables—laying the groundwork for solid business case assessments and confident Final Investment Decisions (FID). From translating your initial ideas into plant concepts and scope definitions, to optimizing designs for cost-efficiency and preparing for detailed procurement and construction, we cover the full spectrum.

Helping you make confident decisions with early-stage cost and technology insights

Proven insight into P2X technologies

We bring hands-on insight into the technologies that power P2X plants. We know how systems like electrolyzers, carbon capturing, synthesis units, and gas treatment processes perform—not just in theory, but in real-world operation. This allows us to create practical, efficient designs tailored to your project’s goals from day one, even under intermittent power load profiles.

EPC expertise with a deep understanding of execution costs

ANDRITZ brings EPC expertise and a clear understanding of real-world execution costs. Our insights into procurement and construction realities ensure cost estimates that reflect market conditions. This strengthens your business case and supports confident early-stage decisions.

Integration engineering for optimal value chain

With our integration engineering services your plants benefit from optimizing the full value chain. We consider various factors such as LCOE (levelized cost of electricity) optimization, green hydrogen demand-driven operation, additional revenues from by-product use, cost base improvement, and additional funding opportunities. Our goal is to enhance the efficiency and profitability of your project.

Customer proximity, globally from the start

Nobody can do it alone —together, we tackle today's challenges with precise and responsive communication.
With a presence in 280 locations worldwide, we can efficiently build P2X solutions wherever you want to build the plant.

Understanding of project viability requirements

To make P2X projects viable, special attention must be given to intermittent power load profiles. Our approach includes LCOP (levelized cost of product) reduction, product and by-product demand-driven operation optimization, additional revenues from by-product use, cost base improvement, and leveraging EU funding for innovative projects.

Additionally, our plant concepts reflect the best scaling and process integration for an optimum of the levelized cost of product. For this we offer a holistic process simulation, from the input of the electron to the output of the targeted product(s).

Key deliverables

In the FEL-1 and FEL-2 phases, we translate customer ideas into project scopes, prepare process diagrams, estimate costs, and align with engineering requirements.

During these phases, we help you understanding the differences and advantages of technology options. During the final FEL-3 phase, we complete process simulations, finalize engineering datasheets, prepare equipment procurement inquiries, and refine cost estimates.

At all stages we align the need for permitting requirements and deliver accordant documents, e.g. environmental impact analysis.

Your trusted partner for P2X

We offer integrated P2X solutions for the production of green hydrogen, e-methanol and e-ammonia, taking responsibility for delivering and integrating the technologies. Our plants are tailored to the customer's needs and site-specific conditions.
