The energy transition in Europe is underway. In Spain, this commitment to renewable energy sources of the future is becoming increasingly decisive.
China accounts for over half of the green hydrogen production capacity currently operational around the world. Moreover, 94 of the 510 projects globally committed until 2030 (in other words, almost one in five) are located in China.
In Spain, green hydrogen has already mobilised over 3 billion euros in aid from the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan. Of this total, 520 million euros have been earmarked for five hydrogen-intensive projects, while a further 1.2 billion euros have been allocated to the development of hydrogen valleys, which are regarded as a key part of energy and territorial planning.
Women account for half the world’s population. However, the International Labour Organisation (ILO), a United Nations body specialising in employment issues, estimates that only 46.4% of women of working age have jobs, compared to 69.5% of men. In other words, that their effective participation in the workforce is far from being equivalent to that of […]
With nearly 400 projects underway and an investment of over €33 billion, Spain is positioning itself as a leader in the development of renewable hydrogen. Four large electrolysers with a total capacity of 235 MW and an investment of over €700 million are set to be operational by 2026. These will be capable of producing 34,000 tonnes of green hydrogen per year.
Thanks to its potential in clean energy, strategic projects and public support, Spain is establishing itself as the main hub for renewable hydrogen in southern Europe. By leading initiatives such as H2med and the Hydrogen Backbone Network, the country is establishing itself as a key player in the European energy transition.
CelZa is a project that will connect Spain and Portugal via a green hydrogen pipeline, which is key to the European energy transition. It will enable the transport of clean energy and strengthen the network between the Iberian Peninsula and Europe.
Navarra is establishing itself as a leader in the development of renewable hydrogen, driving industrial projects and public-private collaborations. The region stands out for its commitment to innovation, infrastructure, and clean energy production, positioning itself at the forefront of the energy transition in Spain.
H2med is the most advanced green hydrogen corridor in Europe. It will connect the Iberian Peninsula with the European industrial center, driving decarbonization and energy independence. By 2025, the project has secured funding, technical feasibility, and a broad industrial alliance, positioning itself as a key player in the continent’s energy future.
COP30 in Belém has concluded with a commitment to allocate 120 billion dollars annually starting in 2035, aimed at adaptation measures to reduce the vulnerability of natural and human systems to the effects of climate change.
