Enagás successfully completes the first phase of the Call For Interest for the Spanish Hydrogen Backbone.

Enagás has successfully completed the first phase of the non-binding Call For Interest process for the first axes of the Spanish Hydrogen Backbone Network, launched on 14 September, to gauge the interest of the main players in the energy sector in the development of the necessary renewable hydrogen transport infrastructure. The consultation also gathered information on ammonia, oxygen and CO2. More than 200 companies, including producers, consumers, retailers and other stakeholders, responded to the Call for Interest, demonstrating the enormous interest across the sector.

The results of this process, coordinated with the sector's key stakeholders, will make it possible to identify potential users of the Spanish Hydrogen Backbone Network and, if necessary, to adapt the infrastructure proposal presented at the 1st Enagás Hydrogen Day in January 2023. The Spanish Hydrogen Backbone Network plays a crucial role in connecting supply and demand, boosting the competitiveness of Spanish industry and decarbonisation.

Enagás will now begin processing and analysing all the information and data received to perform the appropriate simulations, with a view to presenting the overall results of this consultation at the 2nd Enagás Hydrogen Day on 31 January.
