TEC H2 MAG, a subsidiary of TotalEnergies, has applied for an environmental permit to develop a $16 billion green hydrogen and ammonia project in Chile called H2 Magallanes. The project will include a 5 GW wind power plant, 7 electrolysis centres, a desalination plant, an ammonia production facility, storage tanks, and maritime infrastructure. Green hydrogen will be produced through desalination of seawater. The project is scheduled for an environmental assessment from 2025-2027, with construction expected to start in 2027 and operations targeted to commence in 2030. This initiative aligns with Chile's ambition to become a leading global producer of green hydrogen through electrolysis, with a goal of achieving a yearly capacity of 28 GW and producing 2.7 million tons of green hydrogen by 2030.
