GRTgaz, one of Europe’s leading gas transport operators and Creos Deutschland Wasserstoff GmbH, the hydrogen-focused subsidiary of CREOS Deutschland, a Saarland-based network operator, are to invest €110 million in the construction of mosaHYc – the first open-access hydrogen transport network that will connect France and Germany, thanks to the signing of a contract with the Saarland steelmaking company ROGESA Roheisengesellschaft Saar mbH, as part of its Power4steel decarbonisation project at the Dillingen site.

The contract’s signing is a major milestone along the path towards Europe achieving its “Fit for 55” targets. The hydrogen network will also help decarbonise local industry and will enable cross-border mobility by being able to cater to other consumers, including fuel hydrogen distribution stations.
