Castellón green hydrogen project, Spain
Name of the Project
Castellón green hydrogen project.
Location
Castellón refinery, Valencia, Spain.
Project Owner/s
Castellón Green Hydrogen, a joint venture between bp and Iberdrola.
Project Description
bp and Iberdrola plan to build a 25 MW green hydrogen project at bp’s Castellón refinery. It is expected that an estimated 2 800 t/y of green hydrogen could substitute part of the grey hydrogen currently used by the refinery, which is produced from natural gas.
The plant will convert 200 GWh/y of Iberdrola’s renewable energy into green hydrogen that will contribute to bp’s decarbonisation strategy.
The electrolyser will include five modules of 5 MW containerised proton exchange membrane (PEM) technology.
The project is expected to avoid the emission of 23 000 t/y of CO2.
Potential Job Creation
This plant could create up to 500 new direct jobs during its construction.
Capital Expenditure
Not disclosed.
Planned Start/End Date
The project is expected to be operational in 2026.
Latest Developments
bp and Iberdrola approved the project in September.
