  • Aim to start production in 2026

  • Lhyfe is one of the pioneers of green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø production in Europe with one existing production site and seven production sites under construction

 

Nantes (France), Madrid (Spain), 22 November 2023, 7:30 am CESTLhyfe (EURONEXT: LHYFE), a global pioneer in the production of renewable green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø for transportation and industrial applications, announces the development of a green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø plant (production capacity of up to 5 t/day) in Spain for which it has been awarded a grant of up to €14m from H2 Pioneros.

This plant will be Lhyfe's first green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø production site in Spain, while 7 sites are currently under construction in Europe. Lhyfe has about 200 employees[1] dedicated entirely to renewable Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø production, with projects in 11 countries and a pipeline of over 10 GW[1] in Europe.

The plant will be located in an industrial area in Vallmoll (Tarragona) and will address demand for green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø from different industrial companies in the area.

Potential clients include companies active in chemical and others industrial sectors which aim at replacing fossil fuels (grey Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø and natural gas) currently used in their production process with green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø, as well as transport or logistics companies looking to replace their fleet (trucks, forklifts) with less polluting vehicles like Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø-powered electric vehicles.

Lhyfe's project is one of only 14 across Spain in 2023 that were awarded grant financing through H2 Pioneros[2] (out of 81 projects submitted). The grant, which will fund the design phases, the supply of equipment and the construction work, represents about half of the total estimated investment in the project, with first kilos of green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø to be produced in 2026.

“We are very happy to have been awarded this grant, which we see as a clear reward of our efforts and as the recognition of our expertise in the production and delivery of green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø to multiples customers over the last two years. It is also a proof of us going the right direction in Spain, and we would like to reiterate our commitment to the Spanish Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø strategy and welcome the fact that Spain is focusing on the rapid expansion of a Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø infrastructure based on renewable energies. This project will make a significant contribution towards providing competitive green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø for many industrial and transport companies in the province of Tarragona. It will support our objective to increase the penetration of green Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø throughout Spain in other similar industrial processes", says Taia Kronborg, Chief Business Officer at Lhyfe.

The project's implementation is subject to the granting of operating authorizations and construction permits, as well as to financial investment decisions.
