German Energy Agency (DENA) and Norwegian state-owned Gassco have concluded that a hydrogen pipeline connecting Norway to Germany is “technically feasible” by the year 2030.
Germany and Italy have joined forces to embark on an ambitious project — the construction of a cutting-edge hydrogen pipeline connecting North Africa to Bavaria.
Burgos, a city with a vision for spearheading the green hydrogen revolution, is rallying against the current trajectory of the Spanish H2 Trunk Network.
Germany has floated the idea of constructing a 400-mile hydrogen pipeline beneath the North Sea, connecting with the UK.
FNB Gas unveils plans for Germany’s hydrogen core network, estimating a €20 billion investment by 2032. With a sprawling 9,700 km, the network aims to reshape existing natural gas pipelines, presenting a cost-effective and rapid strategy. Privately financed and backed by German government support, this initiative positions Germany at the forefront of hydrogen infrastructure development.
In a bid to transition to cleaner energy sources, the exploration of hydrogen blending in existing natural gas pipelines has gained momentum. However, recent research from the Argonne National Laboratory reveals a critical hurdle — the increased risk of pipeline leakage associated with hydrogen blending, potentially limiting its viability in current infrastructure.
Algeria has revealed three pivotal projects, with the highlight being the construction of new pipelines dedicated to exporting Algerian green hydrogen to Italy.
Morocco has unveiled ambitious plans to construct a 5,600km hydrogen pipeline that will traverse 11 West African countries.
The Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) is more than just a conduit for natural gas—it’s a critical component in Europe’s pursuit of energy security, diversification, and decarbonization. As the TAP Country Representative in Greece, Ioannis Maris, aptly pointed out, this infrastructure project isn’t merely about the present; it’s about envisioning a future where clean energy takes center stage.
