Naturgy to build 38 hydrogen stations in Spain
The second stage of the roll out will include 120 hydrogen fuel stations, distributed throughout Spanish territory.
Naturgy has presented the Spanish government with a project to build 38 hydrogen fuel stations at a national level to boost refuelling infrastructure. The total infrastructure to be developed during the second stage will come to 120 hydrogen fuel stations.
The initiative presents two hydrogen-fuel station models during its first stage: 20 hydrogen fuel stations with on-site hydrogen production at the facility through an electrolyser or an external plant; and 18 hydrogen fuel stations without on-site production.
The network of 38 hydrogen fuel stations would be distributed all over the national territory, making the most of the company’s hydrogen-production centres.
The company estimates it will have the hydrogen fuel stations in service before 2025, although 80% of them will be put into operation between 2023 and 2024.
Given its geographical and climate features, Spain is the country with the greatest potential for hydrogen production in Europe, with a potential in excess of 3,000 TWh a year, according to Naturgy.
