In Spain, Cepsa said it has selected Siemens Energy for the supply of 100 megawatts (MW) of Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolysis technology for green hydrogen production at its La Rábida Energy Park in Palos de la Frontera (Huelva), southern Spain. Cepsa is developing 400 MW of green hydrogen production in Huelva as part of its wider plans for 2 GW of capacity by 2030. The PEM electrolysis will complement the use of alkaline water technology that Cepsa has decided to implement for the remaining 300 MW of the project, which it is developing with partner Fertiberia. Carlos Barrasa, Executive Vice President of Commercial and Clean Energies at Cepsa said: “Cepsa continues to execute important strategic agreements to develop the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley, enabling us to bring crucial green molecules to our customers as we support their decarbonization journeys. Produced at scale, green hydrogen can power Europe to a zero-carbon energy system. Through a combination of electrolyzer technologies, Cepsa can manage technology risk to ensure supply for our customers.”
