Mallorca's Pioneering Green Hydrogen Project to Spearhead Island Decarbonisation
Key Ideas
  • Mallorca launches Spain's first hydrogen pipeline, connecting the Lloseta plant to the Cas Tresorer station, benefiting over 115,000 households and numerous consumers.
  • The 'Green Hysland' project aims to achieve zero emissions by 2050, making Mallorca the first H2 hub in southwestern Europe with plans for expansion to other islands globally.
  • Up to 575 tonnes of hydrogen per year can be injected, reducing 3,829 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually, with a significant investment and the connection of six deployment sites.
  • The project receives support from key governmental and European bodies, highlighting the commitment to green hydrogen development in Mallorca and island decarbonisation.
Mallorca is at the forefront of the clean energy revolution with the launch of Spain's first hydrogen pipeline, marking a significant milestone in the island's transition to renewable energy. The project, spearheaded by Redexis as part of the 'Green Hysland' initiative, aims to showcase the potential of renewable hydrogen for decarbonisation and economic growth not only in Mallorca but also as a model for other islands globally. The hydrogen pipeline will transport green hydrogen from the Lloseta plant to the Cas Tresorer station in Palma, benefiting a large number of households and industrial consumers. This move is part of the broader goal of achieving zero emissions by 2050, setting the stage for a widespread hydrogen economy on the island. The project plans to expand this model to other Balearic Islands as well as internationally to locations like Madeira, Tenerife, Greece, and Chile. With an annual injection capacity of up to 575 tonnes of hydrogen, significant reductions in CO2 emissions are expected, underlining the environmental impact of the initiative. The connection of six deployment sites, including key locations like a ferry terminal, a hotel, and a hydrogen refuelling station, demonstrates the integrated approach to decarbonising multiple sectors on the island. The project has garnered support from various organizations and receives funding from the European Union's Clean Hydrogen Partnership, showcasing the collaborative efforts towards sustainable energy solutions. The involvement of governmental bodies like the Balearic Government and the Spanish Ministry of Industry emphasizes the strategic importance of the project, further propelling Mallorca as a leader in green hydrogen development and island decarbonisation.
