It involves the development of a 500 MW green\u00a0hydrogen generation plant that will produce more than 50,000 tonnes per year.<\/p>\n<p>The hydrogen produced will be transported via a pipeline 221 kilometres long to major\u00a0industrial customers in the Mediterranean area, including a newly built, state-of-the-art\u00a0green ammonia plant with an annual production capacity of up to 247,000 tonnes, as well\u00a0as to other refining facilities and tile companies.<\/p>\n<p>It is estimated that in this first stage Catalina will contribute to the avoidance of almost 0.4\u00a0million tonnes of CO2 emissions per year.<\/p>\n<p>In a second phase of the project, the green hydrogen production capacity will increase to 2\u00a0GW. This production will cover 30% of Spain\u2019s current demand for green hydrogen.<\/p>\n<p>Jos\u00e9 G\u00f3mez-Arroyo, Catalina Project Director, has stated that \u201cCatalina is a first-of-a-kind\u00a0large scale green hydrogen project that will contribute enormously to the energy transition\u00a0and emissions avoidance of Spanish industry, and to European energy independence.<\/p>\n<p>Catalina is one of the early-stage large scale projects that\u2019s help make viable the Spanish\u00a0hydrogen backbone infrastructure as well as international interconnectors. Catalina is\u00a0partnering with leading companies in their fields to ensure delivery of this highly complex\u00a0project. We are happy to announce our partnership with T\u00e9cnicas Reunidas and we look\u00a0forward to working with them in the next phase of Catalina\u2019s development.\u00a0Gonzalo Pardo, Commercial Director for Power and the Energy Transition of T\u00e9cnicas\u00a0Reunidas, stressed that \u201cthis contract is yet another example of our company\u2019s firm\u00a0commitment to projects related to energy transition and decarbonisation, as it adds to the\u00a0long list of initiatives that we have been developing for three years in relation to green\u00a0hydrogen, the circular economy and carbon capture\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About CIP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Founded in 2012, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners P\/S (CIP) today is the world\u2019s largest\u00a0dedicated fund manager within greenfield renewable energy investments and a global\u00a0leader in offshore wind.
