Höegh Evi, a key player in marine energy infrastructure, has signed a memorandum of understanding with the port of Port-La Nouvelle in the Occitanie region to develop a floating terminal for hydrogen imports. This collaboration aims to position Port-La Nouvelle as a pivotal center for hydrogen in Europe, catering to the continent's increasing demand for sustainable energy. The port's investments in modernization align with the goal of accommodating the requirements of green energy. The planned floating terminal is set to handle significant hydrogen quantities, with the capacity to import up to 210,000 tons per year by 2030, contributing to securing Europe's energy supply. Through partnerships with entities like HySoW Hydrogen and Teréga, the project intends to integrate the new infrastructure into the European hydrogen transport network, ensuring efficient delivery to areas in need while supporting carbon emission reduction efforts. For Höegh Evi, this venture signifies a strategic move towards renewable energy promotion in Europe, serving as a catalyst for the continent's energy transition by facilitating access to eco-friendly fuels. CEO Erik Nyheim highlights the terminal's role in advancing Europe's energy shift. The CEO of SEMOP Port-La Nouvelle, Hans Kerstens, envisions the port as a key player in renewable fuel importation, aiming to transform it into Europe's Mediterranean hydrogen hub. Despite facing technical and logistical challenges, the project signals an opportunity to advance hydrogen as a prominent energy source in Europe, contingent upon the evolution of France's hydrogen transport infrastructure by 2030.
