Targeting: Hydrogen (1)
Long-term H2PPAs secure physical renewable power and Guarantees of Origin for RFNBO-compliant hydrogen, enabling flexible e‑methane production and advancing the project's FID.
The study will assess green hydrogen production feasibility in Helsinki, aiding low-cost design for carbon-neutral energy by 2030, with completion expected by mid-2025.
The plant will supply hydrogen for heavy transport, use waste heat for district heating, and aims to cut CO2 emissions by 3,700 tonnes annually, launching in 2026 with aid from the Finnish government.
