Main uses of hydrogen
Renewable hydrogen will be used to produce synthetic fuels, conventional fuels, and in the long term it could also be used to supply the demand for hydrogen in the mobility industry.
Renewable hydrogen: An alternative for reducing emissions.
What is renewable hydrogen?
Renewable hydrogen is an energy vector derived from renewable sources that has zero CO2 emissions. The use of hydrogen in conjunction with low-carbon liquid fuels is essential for decarbonization.
Shyne, 33 entities promoting hydrogen
We presented SHYNE (Spanish Hydrogen Network), a consortium comprising 33 entities from multiple sectors that will promote the decarbonization of the Spanish economy through renewable hydrogen.

How do we produce renewable hydrogen?
There are many ways to produce renewable hydrogen. One of the most common technologies used is eletrolysis from water, which is a process involving the separation of the water molecule in hydrogen and oxygen by applying renewable electric energy, but there are other alternatives. At Repsol, we produce it from solar energy and using biomethane.
Our strategy to promote renewable hydrogen
We are investing €2.549 billion with the aim of becoming a market leader in the Iberian Peninsula and position us as a major producer in Europe.
Main uses of hydrogen
Renewable hydrogen will be used to produce synthetic fuels, conventional fuels, and in the long term it could also be used to supply the demand for hydrogen in the mobility industry.
Mobility
It's used as raw material for producing carbon-neutral synthetic fuels. Also, fuel cell vehicles powered by hydrogen are one of the options to mainly decarbonize heavy-duty road transportation.
Industry
Hydrogen is a key component in our refining processes as it's used as raw material.
Renewable energy storage
It can be used to store renewable electricty surplus on a large scale when supply exceeds demand. This makes it possible to use the stored energy later on.
Net zero emissions by 2050
Our ambition is to become a leader in renewable hydrogen production on the Iberian Peninsula and hold an important position in the European market.
