In Spain, Cepsa and Fertiberia, two of Spain’s largest hydrogen consumers, have reached an agreement to decarbonize their production processes by jointly developing a large-scale renewable hydrogen plant in Huelva using green energy and other renewable gases. Through this agreement, Cepsa and Fertiberia have become strategic partners in the project to develop 1 GW of electrolysis capacity in Palos de la Frontera as part of the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley. Maarten Wetselaar, CEO of Cepsa, said: “We are adding a new strategic partner to the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley to continue promoting the decarbonization of industry in Huelva and make it a benchmark for sustainability in Europe. Our agreement with Fertiberia is a major step forward in our commitment to green hydrogen as a key energy vector to decarbonize our own activity and that of our customers.” “This alliance will make Huelva’s green hydrogen production more competitive, becoming a source of opportunities for multiple companies along the value chain. It will also further the full decarbonization of our assets and our positioning as a leader in green ammonia and sustainable crop nutrition solutions,” said Javier Goñi, CEO of Grupo Fertiberia.
