EDP begins hydrogen production project

Global energy company EDP has announced plans for a pilot hydrogen production and storage project at the Ribatejo Combined Cycle Plant in Portugal.

With support from the European Union, EDP will construct a 1MW electrolyser which will feature a storage capacity of 12 MWh, one of the largest of its kind in the country.

“Hydrogen is a clear alternative in implementing the new energy world. As leaders of the energy transition, we are continually evaluating and testing potential energy production alternatives,” said António Mexia, CEO at EDP.
