SubsidieMeestersCatalina
The Catalina project aims to establish a 500MW electrolyser and renewable generation in Spain to produce 480,000 tons of renewable hydrogen, supporting green ammonia production and job creation by 2030.
Projectdetails
Introduction
The use of renewable hydrogen as an alternative to fossil fuels will play an important role in the EU’s transition towards climate neutrality by 2050, and the achievement of the objectives set forth in the REPowerEU plan.
Project Overview
The Catalina project will be developed by the company CI ETF I Renato Ptx Holdco, S.L.U. (RENATO). The shareholders of RENATO are:
- Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP)
- Enagás Renovable S.A. (EGR)
Technical Specifications
The Catalina project will install a 500 MW electrolyser (technology chosen still being defined), together with 1.2 gigawatts (GW) of directly connected renewable generation, which includes:
- 614 MW onshore wind
- 571 MW of solar
This installation will be able to produce 480,000 tons of renewable hydrogen during its first 10 years of operation.
Location and Impact
The project will be located in Aragon, Spain, and aims to be a ‘hydrogen industrial hub’ in the Andorra region. It is expected to have a relevant positive impact on job creation for this rural area.
Applications of Renewable Hydrogen
The project will supply its renewable hydrogen for green ammonia production, which will be used to produce green and sustainable fertiliser, thereby replacing imported grey ammonia and helping to decarbonise the agricultural sector.
Furthermore, the Catalina project has the potential to also supply RFNBO hydrogen to a major petrochemical plant, providing an innovative off-take structure with multiple off-takers from different sectors.
Contribution to European Goals
This project contributes to the European Hydrogen Bank’s goal of making 10 million tonnes of domestically produced renewable hydrogen in Europe available by 2030.
