One of Europe’s largest planned renewable hydrogen projects, Spain’s HyDeal Espana, has halved its electrolyser capacity targets and will come on line nearly three years later than planned, the Argus reported on 14 September.
HyDeal Espana will now reach 3.3GW of installed electrolyser capacity by 2031, developer HyDeal’s president Thierry Lepercq said today at the World Hydrogen and Renewables Iberia conference in Madrid. This constitutes a sizeable reduction from 7.4GW initially targeted for 2030.Hydrogen output is now expected at 150,000 t/yr, down from 330,000 t/yr.
Associated renewable power assets have been downsized accordingly. HyDeal is now targeting 4.4GW of solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity by 2031, down from 9.5GW previously envisaged for 2030. The plant’s targeted start-up has been pushed back to 2028 from the end of 2025.
