Interview with Sandrine Meunier, head of French gas TSO, GRTgaz She says France is set to miss its electrolyser capacity target by five years, likely installing 6.5 GW by 2035 instead of 2030 “It’s going to take a little longer to achieve competitive hydrogen production, it’s a new industry so it necessarily takes time to scale up,” although industrial consumers are committed to switching to hydrogen Despite the weak signals, GRTgaz is developing hydrogen infrastructure projects in industrial hubs in France, but is not yet working on large-scale pan-European projects, which are “much more long term“ The TSO head argues hydrogen production costs should be identical across France, Germany and Spain to ensure French industrials remain in the country, factoring in transportation costs Full story: https://lnkd.in/ews_xj-v -

EDF announces OASIS 1 battery energy storage systems projects achieve Financial Close. The Oasis consortium is led by EDF Group, with the co-sponsor Mulilo and equity partners Pele Energy Group and GIBB. Each project includes a 5% ownership interest allocated to local communities through a special Community Trust. The OASIS 1 projects consist of three BESS: 1. Oasis Mookodi: 77MW capacity with 308MWh storage, 2. Oasis Aggeneis: 77MW capacity with 308MWh storage, 3. Oasis Nieuwehoop: 103MW capacity with 412MWh storage.   In total, the projects amount to 257MW of capacity and about 1GWh of storage. The consortium has raised and invested 7 billion Rand (≈$387 million) financed via debt funded by Standard Bank Group and Absa Group. The Oasis projects will operate under a 15-year Power Purchase Agreement with the South Africa's public utility Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd. The projects are expected to provide much needed flexibility and stability to the grid given that the total energy shortage in the country reached 14.4TWh in 2023 as per Eskom assessments. Béatrice Buffon, Group Senior Executive Vice-President, EDF International Division, CEO of EDF Renewables stated: "We are very pleased to have achieved commercial and financial close on these projects. EDF is committed to develop decarbonised flexibility solutions to meet the needs of the electricity system in South Africa. Our projects will store and dispatch power to provide grid constraint relief, energy arbitrage, and help to stabilise the grid for short periods by providing or absorbing power. I am convinced that this key milestone opens new opportunities to accompany the energy transition in the country." #energy #funding #bess #battery #banking

Here's the latest #EnergyTransition news highlights from S&P Global Commodity Insights Weekly ET News Highlights: Fertiglobe wins first German H2Global green ammonia import tender at Eur1,000/mt Germany has awarded the first green ammonia contract under its H2Global hydrogen derivative import scheme, with Fertiglobe winning at Eur1,000/mt ($1,088/mt) for delivery to Northwest Europe. The auction result is significant as it is a strong indication of the market potential of renewable hydrogen and its derivatives demonstrating that financial and procurement innovations like H2Global's mechanism can proceed forward and create the market for the new fuel. The supply will start with a potential 19,500 mt in 2027, subject to production start date and supply availability from Fertiglobe's plant in Egypt, rising to a total of 397,000 mt cumulatively by 2033, for a maximum contract value of Eur397 million. A final investment decision for Scatec's Egypt Green Hydrogen project, which will supply hydrogen for the ammonia production at Fertiglobe's existing Ain Sokhna plant, is expected in the first half of 2025.

GTT Strategic Ventures, the investment arm of the GTT (Gaztransport & Technigaz) Group, has announced its participation in a substantial €16.5 million financing round aimed at bolstering the development of ENERGO, a French technology firm specializing in the production of synthetic molecules utilizing plasma catalysis. The investment, made in conjunction with Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale’s Fonds de Révolution Environnementale et Solidaire and Nord France Amorçage, marks a significant stride in advancing Energo’s pioneering initiatives in sustainable energy. A French technology company created in 2018 following academic research at Chimie Paris Tech, Energo is developing a disruptive technology based on the plasma catalysis process, which enables the production of renewable energies such as green hydrogen, biofuels, or methane from CO2, biogas, and ammonia. Energo’s technology is energy-efficient, competitive, and adaptable to all energy sources. Its fields of application are numerous and innovative: the recovery of CO2 by methanation, the dissociation of ammonia to produce hydrogen, or the dry reforming of methane to produce hydrogen or organic liquids (methanol, acetone, etc.). Winner of the first class of La French Tech 2030 in 2023, Energo has benefited, since its creation, from the support of Bpifrance, Ademe, the Hauts-de-France region, the PSL-Chimie Paris University, and the European Union to support its development. #bunkering #energy #shipping #marine #maritime #petroleum #shipowners #decarbonization #digitalization #energytransition #oilandgas #cleanenergy #carboncapture #ports #greenenergy #greenshipping #netzero #sustainability #bunkermarket #europe #usa #uk #canada #uae #netherlands #denmark #norway #sweden #finland #singapore #france #gtt #gttgroup #energo #sustainableenergy #energytechnology https://lnkd.in/drA6NEFj

The French government said on Wednesday it has granted EDF environmental authorisation to begin preparation work on the pair of new nuclear reactors (EPR2s) it plans to build in Penly, Normandy This enables EDF to begin clearing land, relocating species, reshaping the cliff, extending the sea platform and building some facilities, excluding the nuclear building However, EDF still needs to receive a separate approval from the French nuclear safety body ASN to begin work on the nuclear section, which ASN expects to provide around the end of 2026 Meanwhile, an official source confirmed EDF’s revised cost estimate for the six new reactors, at EUR 67.4bn (in 2020 values), 30% more than the initial cost, as reported in French daily Les Echos earlier this year L'article en français : https://lnkd.in/ebVvS68H ⤵

TotalEnergies, VERBUND AG sign preliminary deal on #Tunisian #hydrogen supply to #Europe Austrian electricity provider VERBUND AG and French energy major TotalEnergies' joint venture with Eren Groupe S.A. TE H2 have signed a preliminary deal with the Republic of Tunisia for a #renewablehydrogen project to supply Europe The multi-billion-dollar project, H2 Notos, aims to produce 200,000 metric tons of hydrogen a year using desalinated water from the Mediterranean and electricity from wind and solar farms in southern Tunisia. A ramp-up to 1 million tons per year is possible. The hydrogen would be transported to Europe through a 3,300 km pipeline connecting #Tunisia to #Italy and continuing onto #Austria and #Germany which is being planned by companies including Snam S.p.A. Production could begin as early as 2030, with #Verbund taking some of the hydrogen and transporting it throughout #CentralEurope What is notable about this project is its ability to transport low-cost hydrogen directly to Europe via pipeline," TEH2 CEO David Corchia said Pipeline transport adds about 1 euro - $1.09/km. to the cost, compared with 3.5 to 4 euros /km when you transform hydrogen to ammonia, ship it on a boat, and re-crack it back into hydrogen." A final investment decision (FID) is expected in 2027 or 2028 Mohamed Koubassi Osama Fawzy Georgy HENEIN, MBA
