Los proyectos de hidrógeno en España caen desde casi 400 a 312 en un año

The renewable hydrogen sector in Spain has seen a decrease in registered projects, dropping from nearly 400 to 312 in the past year, according to data from the Spanish Association of Hydrogen (AeH2). The estimated total investment potential for these projects exceeds 25 billion euros, including over 3 billion in public financing.

This decline comes as the sector is undergoing a concentration and re-planning of projects, with experts suggesting a shift towards advanced stages of development and eventual industrial implementation. The AeH2 census includes 102 research projects, 109 demonstration projects, and 101 commercial projects, providing insights into the evolution of initiatives from early technological phases to potential industrial deployment.

Two commercial initiatives have reached the final investment decision (FID) stage, with a combined electrolysis capacity of 400 megawatts (MW). An additional 11 projects, representing 930 MW, are expected to reach this stage before the end of the year. Fifteen more projects, totaling 2,362 MW, are projected to achieve FID in 2027.

By 2030, the forecast is for 7,600 MW of electrolysis capacity, a significant increase from the 13,600 MW recorded a year ago.
