Manufacture of a 2.5 MW electrolyzer for Petronor’s refinery in Muskiz (Spain)

We collaborate with John Cockerill in the construction of a 2.5 MW electrolysis plant for Repsol. The electrolyzer, which will be located in Petronor’s industrial complex in Muskiz (Spain) and will supply the Basque Hydrogen Corridor, will generate the first renewable hydrogen in the Basque Country.

The electrolyzer will serve the refinery itself and the different entities located in the Ezkerraldea-Meatzaldea Technology Park, located in the municipality of Abanto Zierbena.

The green energy to be consumed by the electrolyzer to generate the renewable hydrogen will be supplied by Repsol. Likewise, the pipelines from the refinery to the Ezkerraldea-Meatzaldea Technology Park will be built by Nortegas.

Besides, this renewable hydrogen will also be used in the first buses and light vehicles of the park’s own mobility logistics platform, which will feature the first hydrogen station in the Basque Country.

This is a project within the Basque Hydrogen Corridor, BH2C, which aims to contribute to the change of energy and economic model to advance in the decarbonization of strategic sectors such as energy, mobility, industry and services.
