Renewable Hydrogen Production Project to Decarbonize TotalEnergies' Biorefinery
Key Ideas
- Air Liquide to build, own, and operate a new hydrogen production unit at TotalEnergies' La Mède site with a capacity of 25,000 tonnes per year, contributing to the emergence of a renewable hydrogen ecosystem.
- The renewable hydrogen produced will be used by the biorefinery for biofuels and Sustainable Air Fuels, aiming to reduce CO₂ emissions by approximately 130,000 tonnes per year.
- The project represents an investment of over 80 million euros for Air Liquide and is planned to be operational by 2028, significantly aiding the decarbonization of the biorefinery.
- This initiative strengthens Air Liquide's commitment to decarbonization, offering a wide range of solutions to meet the demands for decarbonized hydrogen, positioning the company as a key player in implementing hydrogen projects for industrial decarbonization and low-carbon mobility.
Air Liquide has announced a renewable hydrogen production project at TotalEnergies' La Mède site in Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, France. The project involves building a new hydrogen production unit with a capacity of 25,000 tonnes per year to meet TotalEnergie's biorefinery hydrogen needs. This initiative aims to create a renewable hydrogen ecosystem in the Fos-sur-Mer area, contributing to the decarbonization of the biorefinery and reducing CO₂ emissions by 130,000 tonnes yearly.
The project, requiring an investment of over 80 million euros and set to be operational by 2028, signifies a milestone in Air Liquide's efforts towards decarbonization. By offering a variety of decarbonization solutions, including renewable hydrogen, CO₂ capture, and low-carbon hydrogen, Air Liquide is actively supporting the energy transition and addressing climate challenges. Air Liquide's strategic partnership with TotalEnergies demonstrates its commitment to industrial decarbonization and the development of sustainable mobility solutions, positioning the company as a key player in the renewable energy sector.
