[0061] The equipment of the floating offshore wind-integrated marine green hydrogen production system for the floating offshore wind-integrated marine green hydrogen production device is mounted on a semi-submersible floating system.

[0066] The device for producing marine green hydrogen integrated with floating offshore wind power has NaS batteries stacked in three layers within the empty space of the column, reducing the area occupied on the floating platform deck and ensuring stability by aligning the center of gravity.

[0067] The device or hydrogen production system for producing marine green hydrogen integrated with a floating offshore wind power plant can be arranged so that each facility has a separate work space, taking into account the maintenance of the components inside the modular container.
