Spain Boosts Green Hydrogen Production Target for Energy and Climate Goals
Key Ideas
  • Spain has increased its target for green hydrogen production capacity to 12 gigawatts by 2030, up from the previous target of 11 GW.
  • The government's updated strategy includes ambitions for energy efficiency, renewables, and aims to position Spain as a leader in green hydrogen in Europe.
  • The plan is crucial for companies to plan investments in line with national energy and climate goals.
  • Madrid, like other European countries, faced delays in submitting the plan to Brussels but is working towards meeting its commitments.
Spain has revised its target for green hydrogen production capacity in an effort to enhance its energy and climate strategy. The new goal set for 2030 is 12 gigawatts, up from the initial target of 11 gigawatts. By harnessing its abundant sunshine and wind resources, Spain aims to become a key player in green hydrogen production in Europe. The government's plan, to be approved at an upcoming cabinet meeting, outlines targets for energy efficiency, renewables, and other key areas. This strategy not only sets the roadmap for achieving environmental objectives but also provides guidance for companies planning investments in the renewable energy sector. Despite missing the deadline for plan submission to Brussels, Madrid is committed to advancing its green hydrogen agenda and aligning with European sustainability goals.
