Enagás to turn Spain into benchmark for hydrogen

Spain can set a European and global hydrogen standard. Enagás’ “Hydrogen Day” message was this.

In a recording, Vice President and Minister for the Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge Teresa Ribera said Spain is “extraordinarily well positioned” to benefit from the hydrogen economy.

Antonio Llardén, Enagás’ president, has stated that hydrogen must become the undisputed protagonist of the European economy by effecting decarbonisation, security, and energy policy prices. Llardén joined the European Hydrogen Backbone (EHB) to achieve this. Enagás and the major European TSOs have been examining how hydrogen demand will be dispersed in Europe.

Spain’s marine connection between Barcelona and Marseille (BarMar) will export up to two million tons of green hydrogen, 10 percent of Europe’s 2030 demand. Enagás’ CEO says this will become Spain Europe’s first renewable hydrogen center and meet internal demand.

In 2023, the renewable hydrogen market “is taking off,” said firm CEO Arturo Gonzalo. Enagás has identified 30% of gas pipeline sections for hydroduct conversion, which might rise to 70%. Other gas-hydrogen network synergies include a 50% reduction in processing times, cost savings of over 30%, and a lower environmental effect. Arturo Gonzalo further stated that the PCI call’s hydrogen projects meet European goals and the Enagás 2022-2030 Strategic Plan.

From 2026, maximum investment will be roughly 2,500 million euros. The Spanish Hydrogen Trunk Network projects and the two storage facilities Enagás offered to the PCI call might cost 4,670 million euros.

Arturo Gonzalo stated that the supply and demand estimations, Trunk Network layout, and investments will be finalized with the final renewable hydrogen objectives defined in the PNIEC update, due for mid-year, and Mandatory Government Planning. Access to European funds, strong promises from future “off-takers,” cross-border cost allocation between beneficiary nations of Projects of Common Interest, and infrastructure tolls will finance these developments.
