Acciona Energía and Plug Power present hydrogen project to the Government of Navarra

In Spain, Acciona Energía and Plug Power have presented to the regional Government of Navarra their Valle H2V Navarra joint project to build an industrial-scale, green hydrogen production plant in Rocaforte, Spain. The project, currently in the development stage, involves the construction of a 25MW electrolyzer on the land plots adjacent to the Sangüesa biomass plant. The electrolyzer will be powered by hybrid renewable energy produced at a photovoltaic plant (25MW) and a wind farm (24MW), both newly built facilities that are currently under development. The plans of the two companies entail a total associated investment of $92.3 million, and the creation of over 500 direct, indirect, and induced jobs during the construction of the plant. Once built, the plant will reach a total production of 3,880 tons of green hydrogen per year. The partners noted that the project brings together all the key elements of the green hydrogen value chain: renewable energy generation, production infrastructure, storage, and distribution of green hydrogen.
