How a hydrogen lab is helping to power Spain's green-energy shift
Briefly

Spain faces severe climate change impacts, including record heatwaves and droughts, prompting a necessary transition to renewable energy systems. With its advantageous climate for renewable production, the country is pursuing green hydrogen power as a key solution. Spain aims to develop networks of green hydrogen valleys with a target of achieving 4 gigawatts of electrolyser capacity by 2030. Experts like Lluís Soler Turu from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia emphasize the potential of green hydrogen energy, highlighting both the opportunities it presents and the challenges ahead in combating climate change.
Hydrogen power is made by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity, a process called electrolysis.
The nation’s leaders have set ambitious targets for renewable hydrogen deployment, aiming to use their network of green hydrogen valleys to reach an electrolyser capacity of 4 gigawatts by 2030.
