Latvia's national electricity company, Latvenergo, and Israel's H2Pro are set to collaborate on a 5MW hydrogen production project in Latvia utilizing decoupled electrolysis technology. The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the two companies aims to explore the feasibility of integrating H2Pro's electrolyser into Latvia's energy infrastructure, leveraging the country's solar and wind resources. Latvian Minister of Economy, Viktors Valainis, highlights the importance of developing the energy and economy sectors in a mutually beneficial way between Latvia and Israel. H2Pro's CEO, Tzahi Rodrig, believes that Latvenergo provides an ideal environment to showcase the advantages of their technology, emphasizing efficiency and seamless integration with renewables. Decoupled electrolysis technology, which separates the electrolysis process into distinct steps, is expected to offer greater flexibility, efficiency, and cost reduction compared to traditional methods. Latvenergo CEO, Dr. Martins Cakste, underscores the significance of EU funding in the green hydrogen transition while also emphasizing the necessity for projects to be economically viable. He sees promise in innovative technologies like H2Pro's decoupled electrolysis for reducing capital costs while maintaining high efficiency. This partnership signifies a step towards a greener future for Latvia, with a focus on renewable energy integration and cutting-edge hydrogen production technology.
