EUR 62 Million Awarded to GreenH2Atlantic Project for Hydrogen Production in Europe
Key Ideas
- HYTLANTIC's GreenH2Atlantic project secured EUR 62 million from the EU's Innovation Fund to deploy 100 MW of hydrogen production capacity using renewable sources.
- The project aims to supply hydrogen to the Sines refinery and blend it into the natural gas grid, contributing to decarbonization and enhancing regional competitiveness.
- ERM provided essential support to HYTLANTIC in the successful application process, emphasizing the significance of large-scale green hydrogen facilities for decarbonization projects.
- The collaboration between ERM and HYTLANTIC reflects a commitment to driving the European energy transition through innovative sustainability solutions.
The GreenH2Atlantic project, supported by ERM, has been awarded EUR 62 million by the European Union's Innovation Fund to advance hydrogen production in Europe. This initiative involves deploying 100 MW of hydrogen production capacity using wind and solar energy to supply hydrogen to the Sines refinery and for blending in the natural gas grid. ERM, as a sustainability consultancy, played a crucial role in supporting HYTLANTIC throughout the application process, highlighting the project's significance in decarbonizing industries and enhancing competitiveness. With only eight hydrogen production proposals selected out of 70 submissions, this accomplishment underscores the project's merit in the industry electrification and hydrogen call. Michael Dolman, partner lead at ERM, expressed enthusiasm for contributing to the project and emphasized its potential for setting benchmarks in large-scale green hydrogen facilities. The partnership between ERM and HYTLANTIC signifies a dedication to accelerating the European energy transition through innovative and sustainable solutions, positioning GreenH2Atlantic as a model for future decarbonization projects.
