Finland mandates hydrogen network

State-owned Gasgrid will establish a subsidiary to develop and operate national hydrogen infrastructure

Finland is to develop national hydrogen infrastructure and link it with other countries in the Baltic Sea region. State-owned grid operator Gasgrid will establish a subsidiary called Vetyverkko to develop and operate the network. “Advanced energy networks will enable Finland’s competitiveness on the global market in the creation of value chains, investments and jobs in the hydrogen economy,” says Gasgrid Finland’s CEO, Olli Sipila. The move is a response to the European Commission’s RepowerEU plan, which has set ambitious targets for deployment of renewables and hydrogen, with 20mn t/yr of supply targeted for the latter by 2030. The specifics of Finland’s deployment will be further elaborate
