In a significant development for the hydrogen market, TotalEnergies and RWE have finalized a groundbreaking agreement in Germany. Over a span of 15 years, TotalEnergies will purchase approximately 30,000 metric tons of green hydrogen annually from RWE for its refinery located in Leuna, Saxony-Anhalt. This deal represents the largest procurement of climate-neutral hydrogen from an electrolyser in Germany. By utilizing this green hydrogen at the refinery, an impressive 300,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions can be saved each year, equivalent to the annual emissions of 140,000 cars. Markus Krebber, CEO of RWE AG, expressed pride in securing this long-term agreement, highlighting the importance of such partnerships in driving the adoption of hydrogen with the right incentives for customers. Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies, also emphasized the value of the partnership with RWE, particularly in the context of green hydrogen contracts and reducing CO2 emissions at the Leuna refinery. This milestone is made achievable through the support and completion of the H2 backbone by German authorities, showcasing the commitment to green hydrogen initiatives.
