European energy ministers visited the green hydrogen plant at MOL Group's Danube Refinery in Százhalombatta, Hungary, discussing the potential of green hydrogen during the CESEC ministerial meeting in Budapest. The plant, with a 10-megawatt capacity, recently began production, generating 1,600 tonnes of clean green hydrogen annually. This hydrogen, produced using electricity from renewable sources, will help reduce the carbon footprint of the Danube Refinery significantly. MOL Group plans to extend the use of green hydrogen beyond fuel production to the transportation sector. The facility also produces pure oxygen as a by-product, further enhancing its environmental benefits. György Bacsa, Managing Director of MOL Hungary, highlighted the importance of industry incentives and supportive EU regulations for achieving ambitious climate goals while maintaining competitiveness. The CESEC High-Level Group, focusing on energy infrastructure projects in Central-Eastern and South-Eastern Europe, aims to accelerate market integration, renewable deployment, and the integration of hydrogen and biomethane in the region. The visit underscores the growing interest in green hydrogen as a key player in the transition to sustainable energy and the potential it holds for reducing carbon emissions in various sectors.
