Hydrogen and decarbonisation of industry
Key to industrial decarbonization
At PNE Polska, we are aware of the potential of renewable hydrogen as an energy carrier in transport and heating. Both sectors are currently sources of significant CO2 emissions. However, we see renewable hydrogen primarily as a potential means of decarbonizing energy-intensive industries such as fertilizers, chemicals, petrochemicals, and steel. Large-scale renewable energy installations therefore offer an opportunity to reduce emissions in industries for which there will be no simpler, climate-neutral alternatives in the foreseeable future.

Our project in northwestern Poland
Our projects
PNE Polska is developing wind and solar farms in northwestern Poland that will supply renewable energy to large-scale renewable hydrogen production facilities. Connecting these facilities to the hydrogen transmission network requires significant infrastructure expansion. Therefore, PNE AG has entered into cooperation with the Polish gas transmission operator GAZ-SYSTEM S.A. and the German operator GASCADE Gastransport GmbH.
The first stage of the joint project is to conduct feasibility studies on connecting electrolysers to the planned hydrogen network in Poland and to assess the cross-border connection of Polish and German hydrogen networks. The European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) has awarded funding for a business analysis of the “Cross-border Pomeranian Green Hydrogen Cluster” under the CEF RES instrument.
More than clean energy
Independence fueled by innovation
“Renewable hydrogen may not only be a reasonable alternative in areas of the economy where electrification is impossible or very difficult. Renewable hydrogen also means greater energy and feedstock independence for Poland and Europe.”
