Cepsa and GETEC, European energy service providers, have reached a cooperation agreement by which, at 2026, Spanish firm Cepsa will supply green hydrogen and its derivatives to Germany-based GETEC for use by its industry clients as part of their decarbonisation goals.
The agreement between Cepsa and GETEC, signed at the World Hydrogen Summit in Rotterdam, represents the first commercial export deal for the Spanish company since announcing late last year the launch of the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley in southern Spain and its agreement with the Port of Rotterdam to create the first green maritime corridor between southern and northern Europe.
GETEC provides heating, cooling and electricity to industry clients in various sectors while Cepsa plans to start the first green hydrogen exports from Spain in 2026.
In particular, the green hydrogen supply will arrive at the port of Rotterdam, where hydrogen infrastructure is being developed for such intake, and from there will be delivered to final supply points ready for use in the form that will be required by GETEC’s customers.
Carlos Barrasa, director of Commercial & Clean Energies of Cepsa, commented, “At Cepsa we remain focused on the production and rollout of green hydrogen and are delighted to reach this agreement with GETEC to supply green fuel for their customers across Europe.”
He added, “This is yet another example of the opportunities for collaborative decarbonisation solutions made possible by the green hydrogen corridor between the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley and the Port of Rotterdam.”
