Green hydrogen plays an important role to achieve such objectives by complementing the efforts of electrification to reach carbon neutrality in the decarbonization of the hard-to-abate sectors.
GREENH2ATLANTIC, awarded a grant by the European Commission under the H2020 framework programme, is an innovative project that aims to develop a first-of-a-kind 100 MW electrolysis plant in Sines, Portugal, supplying green hydrogen to a local refinery and blending in the natural gas grid.
GREENH2ATLANTIC will have a relevant contribution to reach the GW scale electrolysis needed to achieve the decarbonization targets, by demonstrating the competitiveness of green hydrogen production while repurposing existing infrastructures of a decommissioned coal fired power plant, also contributing to the just transition of a region.The cumulative experience of the 13 companies, research institutes and academia involved will allow to successfully deliver an important contribution towards a carbon-neutral economy at the European level.It is our belief that green hydrogen is a fundamental piece to lead to a better world. Words are not enough; actions are the best way to show commitment. And that’s what we are doing!
