Cepsa and GETEC, one of Europe’s main providers of energy services for the industry and real estate sector, cooperation agreement Spanish energy company to supply from 2026 green hydrogen and its derivatives to GETEC for distribution to industrial customers as part of their decarbonisation goals. GETEC provides heating, cooling and electrical services to industrial customers in various sectors (chemical, automotive, food, pharmaceutical, polymer production or paper industries) in Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Italy.
Cepsa plans to launch First green hydrogen export from Spain in 2026. green hydrogen supply, port of rotterdamhydrogen infrastructure is being developed and will be distributed from there to ready-to-use final supply points as requested by GETEC customers.
The agreement signed between Cepsa and GETEC, World Hydrogen 2023 Summit and Exhibition The agreement signed in Rotterdam represents the first commercial export agreement for the Spanish company since it was announced at the end of last year. Creation of the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley, Europe’s largest green hydrogen huba- and its agreement with the Port of Rotterdam the first sea corridor between southern and northern Europe. It also has an agreement with Cepsa. ACE Terminal at the port of Rotterdam to be supplied green ammonia for conversion to green hydrogen For many industries in Northern Europe or for direct use in different applications including supplying (fueling) ships.
Carlos Barrasa, Commercial and Clean Energies Director of Cepsapresent at this forum in Rotterdam emphasized: “At Cepsa we continue to work on the production and distribution of green hydrogen and we are delighted to sign this agreement with GETEC to provide sustainable fuel to its customers in Europe. This is an example. Rotterdam with the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley Further cooperation opportunities in decarbonization solutions offered by the corridor between the port and the port At Cepsa, we continue to adhere to our Positive Action strategy, which will enable us to supply green hydrogen at scale to accelerate the energy transition in Europe”.
Thomas Schoepke, member of the GETEC steering committeeGETEC’s mission is to help its customers achieve their decarbonization goals, thereby supporting the energy transition in Europe. The use of green hydrogen is a crucial pillar for the decarbonisation of the industrial sector. has already participated in hydrogen projects such as HEAVENN in the north of the Netherlands to power our industrial customers from hydrogen in the future. The agreement with a partner known as Cepsa represents an important step in this process.”
Cepsa develops 2 GW of green hydrogen in two energy parks located in Andalusia Palos de la Frontera (Huelva) and San Roque (Cádiz)As part of the 2030 strategy, Positive Actionto beleader in sustainable mobility and renewable hydrogen and biofuel production second generation and thus will be a touchstone in the energy transition. The two hydrogen plants, with an investment of €3,000 million, will form part of the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley, with which Cepsa has recently signed several cooperation agreements along the hydrogen value chain.
Allied with GETEC by importing the sustainable energy that Cepsa is able to produce competitively in southern Spain due to current conditions such as abundant sun, wind and land, a significant electricity grid and access to high-traffic ports. contributes to the decarbonisation of the industry To guarantee independence and security of supply and affordable energy in other parts of Europe and across the continent.
