Spanish gas distributor Redexis has started blending green hydrogen into Mallorca’s national gas grid via the country’s “first” pipeline.

Understood to be Europe’s largest fully commissioned green hydrogen blending project, the 3.2km pipeline will transport the fuel via the existing 1,400km gas network in Mallorca. The network’s hydrogen blend is reported to be 2%.

The green hydrogen will be sourced from Acciona Energía and Enagás’ 2.5MW hydrogen production site in Lloseta and transported to the Cas Tresorer injection point on the 1,400km gas grid, responsible for over 115,000 homes and businesses.

H2 View understands that Redexis’ hydrogen pipeline will initially carry 190 tonnes of green hydrogen per year. Under construction since November (2023), the pipeline is scheduled to eventually transport 575 tonnes per year of hydrogen.
