Innovative Green Hydrogen Plant to Boost Mobility in Brazil
Key Ideas
  • A new green hydrogen plant in Taguatinga, Brazil, powered by a photovoltaic plant, will contribute to decarbonizing hard-to-electrify sectors like automotive transport.
  • The initiative aims to boost electrification through investments in innovative technologies, leveraging Brazil's abundance of affordable renewable energy.
  • The project will serve as a hub for knowledge and innovation in green hydrogen, supporting its development as an energy vector and aligning with Brazil's preparations for COP 30.
  • The plant, operated by Neoenergia, will provide two-pressure fuel to accommodate a wide range of vehicles, including buses, trucks, and passenger cars, for effective decarbonization.
In Taguatinga, Brazil, a new green hydrogen plant is set to open in October as part of the Research, Development, and Innovation Program regulated by ANEEL. This plant, powered by a photovoltaic system, targets the decarbonization of challenging sectors like automotive transport. The strategic location near Brasilia offers visibility and feasibility for deploying this innovative infrastructure. Neoenergia's CEO, Eduardo Capelastegui, highlights the commitment to boosting electrification through investments in Brazil's competitive renewable energy sector. The project will focus on green hydrogen as an energy vector and align with Brazil's climate initiatives in preparation for COP 30. Industries like heavy transport, steel, and chemicals, which are difficult to electrify directly, can benefit from green hydrogen for decarbonization. The project, similar to Iberdrola's initiatives in Spain, will provide two-pressure fuel to accommodate various vehicles, emphasizing its versatility in decarbonizing the transportation sector.
