The hydrogen from electrolysis and CO 2 , delivered by a pipeline, are fed to a plant where the gases are converted in a reverse water–gas shift (RWGS) reactor to syngas (H 2 and CO). The syngas is then further converted to hydrocarbons using Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis. The liquid product is stored in tanks for later use.
