Regulatory News:
TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) and Air Products
have signed a 15-year agreement for the annual supply in Europe of
70,000 tons of green hydrogen starting in 2030. This first
long-term deal follows TotalEnergies’ call for tenders for the
supply of 500,000 tons per year of green hydrogen to decarbonize
TotalEnergies’ European refineries.
Under the agreement, Air Products will deliver at TotalEnergies’
Northern European refineries’ doorstep, green hydrogen from Air
Products’ global supply network. This hydrogen will avoid around
700,000 tons of CO2 each year. The contract awarded to Air Products
is a first step towards achieving TotalEnergies' objective of
reducing net greenhouse gas emissions from its operated oil and gas
operations (Scope 1+2) by 40% by 2030 compared to 2015 levels.
Air Products, worldwide leader in terms of hydrogen supply, has
been a first mover, committing more than $15 billion dollars to
real, large-scale energy transition projects and launching several
large low carbon hydrogen projects in the world, making it a
leading and reliable supplier.
“This deal with Air Products, the first signed following the
call for tenders launched last year, is a steppingstone towards our
goal of decarbonizing the hydrogen used in TotalEnergies’
refineries in Northern Europe by the end of the decade. We are
proud to partner with Air Products, a pioneer in low carbon
hydrogen production, under the leadership of Seifi Ghasemi. Once
again, we demonstrate our capacity to pioneer the energy transition
and contribute to the emergence of a green hydrogen industry by
offering long-term contracts with our six refineries and two
biorefineries in Europe. We are also happy to extend our
partnership with Air Products by becoming ourselves a supplier of
green power to Air Products and contributing to Air Products’ own
decarbonization roadmap,” said Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and
CEO of TotalEnergies.
“Today, one of the largest energy companies in the world has
committed to use renewable hydrogen to decarbonize its refineries
in Northern Europe, and we at Air Products are honored and proud to
be the producer and supplier of the green hydrogen required,” said
Air Products’ Chairman, President and CEO Seifi Ghasemi.
Noting that Air Products started on the journey of producing clean
hydrogen seven years ago, Seifi Ghasemi added, “We always believed
that if we made clean hydrogen available at commercial scale, the
demand would be there. This contract validates our long-term
strategy. Clearly the demand is here, and it will grow
significantly as we move forward, playing an essential role in
decarbonizing heavy industry and other sectors. I also want to
express my admiration for Mr. Patrick Pouyanné’s vision and courage
in acting as a first-mover towards creating a cleaner future for
the world.”
At the same time, TotalEnergies and Air Products have signed a
memorandum of understanding for the supply of renewable power,
which entails the signing of a first Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
for 150 MW produced at a solar project in Texas. The parties also
plan to explore together further PPA opportunities in the UK,
Poland and France. This agreement, which strengthens the
partnership between TotalEnergies and Air Products, will contribute
to Air Products‘ decarbonization roadmap and is in line with
TotalEnergies’ integrated electricity strategy along the value
chain.
