DH2 Energy’s green hydrogen production project has been granted national interest status by the Portuguese Agency for Investment and Foreign Trade (AICEP).

The Potential National Interest (PIN) status for the VVR Green project will act as a support system for investments that are considered of “special interest for Portugal due to their economic factors and positive impact.”

DH2’s production plant will be located in Vila Velha de Ródão, in Castelo Branco, and boasts an initial capacity of 35MW of electrolysis and 49MWp of solar photovoltaic. The facility could be expanded to 75MW of hydrogen production in its second phase.
