GreenSinnergy's Ambitious Green Hydrogen Project in Argentina's Chubut Province
Key Ideas
- GreenSinnergy and Argentine experts collaborate for a green hydrogen project in Chubut to produce up to 500,000 tpy of sustainable aviation fuel from wind energy.
- The project, ECO-Refinerías del Sur, aims to reduce CO2 emissions by 500,000 tpy in its first phase, with an investment of $2.5 billion and subsequent phases reaching $6 billion.
- Chubut's strong wind resources position it as a key location for new energy investments, with a goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 through the green hydrogen industry.
- Provincial government and stakeholders aim to develop a comprehensive energy transition strategy focusing on green hydrogen production and derivatives to drive sustainable growth.
GreenSinnergy GMBH, in collaboration with Argentine renewable energy experts, is planning a major green hydrogen project in Argentina's Chubut province to produce sustainable aviation fuel using regional wind energy resources. The ECO-Refinerías del Sur project, designed in three phases, will leverage power-to-liquid technology to convert green hydrogen and captured CO2 into SAF. The first phase targets an initial production capacity of 100,000 tpy, with subsequent phases scaling up to 500,000 tpy, supporting global decarbonization efforts in the aviation sector. The total investment for the project could exceed $6 billion, contributing to a significant CO2 reduction rate. Chubut, known for its abundant wind resources, is poised to become a hub for green energy investments. The provincial government, led by Gov. Ignacio Torres, signed an agreement with TES to develop a green hydrogen strategic plan, emphasizing the province's potential for sustainable energy growth and the development of a hydrogen economy. Chubut's collaboration with other Patagonian provinces and the national government underscores a collective commitment to advancing green hydrogen initiatives and attracting investments to the region.
