Spain’s Cepsa has signed a deal with the Dutch port of Rotterdam to ship green hydrogen it plans to produce in Andalusia to northern Europe, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday citing the\u00a0oil\u00a0<\/span>and gas group’s chief executive.<\/p>\n

Countries and companies have seized on green hydrogen- a fuel obtained by passing renewably-produced electricity through water to split the element from oxygen – as a way to cut greenhouse gas emissions, especially from heavy industry.<\/p>\n

Cepsa, which is diversifying into green energy, plans to take advantage of relatively cheap solar energy in Andalusia to power hydrogen production, CEO Maarten Wetselaar said, according to the FT.<\/p>\n

The company would start shipping the hydrogen from Algeciras port as early as 2027 to a hub in Rotterdam, Wetselaar said, without disclosing the cost of the project.<\/p>\n

The hydrogen would be then be used to power industry in northern Europe, the FT cited the port’s director for new business development Nico Van Dooren as saying.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Cepsa, which is owned by Abu Dhabi fund Mubadala and the Carlyle Group, confirmed the FT report and said the company will release more information later on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for the Rotterdam port did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
