COPENHAGEN, Denmark, April 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The two projects are cornerstones in the future decarbonisation of European hard-to-abate energy sectors like shipping and heavy industries. Together, they represent a combined electrolyser capacity of 1,000 MW. Catalina is a hydrogen project with an electrolyser capacity of 500 MW located in Aragon in the north of Spain. The project will produce green hydrogen to reduce carbon emissions from industrial applications. Madoqua, located in Sines, Portugal, is a Power-to-X facility that will produce green hydrogen and ammonia primarily for shipping. It has an initial electrolyser capacity of 500 MW. The two projects have been invited for Grant Agreement preparation with the European Commission. Catalina will receive a production grant with a fixed premium of 0.48 EUR/kgH2 for ~48,000 tH2 p.a. over a 10-year period, an expected total of EUR 230.5 million. Madoqua will receive a fixed premium of 0.48 EUR/kgH2 for ~51,000 tH2 p.a. ...
