Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar) and French renewable hydrogen producer Lhyfe have formed a strategic partnership to explore potential co-development opportunities in large-scale green hydrogen production projects in Europe. The memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed during Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week 2025, with a focus on collaboration and investment opportunities across the green hydrogen value chain. Masdar aims to achieve a renewable energy portfolio capacity of 100 GW by 2030 and become a leading producer of green hydrogen, aligning with the UAE's ambitious renewable energy targets. Lhyfe, on the other hand, has secured substantial funding for various green hydrogen initiatives, including projects in France, the UK, and Germany. The company is actively involved in producing e-methanol for maritime transport decarbonization and is part of a consortium working on establishing an advanced green hydrogen valley in the French Loire Valley. This ambitious project aims to set standards for clean, green, and renewable hydrogen production, with a target of over 1,600 tons of green hydrogen annually by 2028. Both Masdar and Lhyfe's endeavors reflect a positive outlook on hydrogen as a key component in the transition to sustainable energy solutions.
