Höegh Evi, a global leader in marine energy infrastructure solutions, has partnered with the port of Port-La Nouvelle to develop a floating terminal for hydrogen imports. The hydrogen will be sourced from producers in the Middle East, North Africa, and the Americas, with the objective of accelerating Europe's transition to clean energy. The terminal at Port-La Nouvelle is expected to play a crucial role in importing significant volumes of hydrogen, aiming to handle up to 210,000 tonnes per year by 2030, subject to France's hydrogen pipeline readiness. By collaborating with projects like HySoW Hydrogen and Teréga, the initiative will not only enhance the industrial and energy attractiveness of the Occitanie region but also contribute to job growth. Port-La Nouvelle's CEO expressed enthusiasm about becoming a gateway hub for hydrogen in the Mediterranean, highlighting the port's commitment to green energy transitions and accommodating renewable energy traffic. The partners are currently focused on conducting a feasibility assessment and designing the infrastructure solution within the port, positioning Port-La Nouvelle as a key player in the European hydrogen import landscape.
