[Total Energy launches green hydrogen tender] Total Energy plans to supply 500,000 tonnes of green hydrogen per year to its six European refineries (and two biofuels refineries) by 2030 to replace the grey hydrogen currently used in these plants. The above green hydrogen requires about 5GW of electrolyzers and 10GW of dedicated renewable energy, with an investment of about 14 billion euros. The move is part of Total Energy's plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from its oil and gas operations by 40% by 2030. Grey hydrogen, currently produced from Total Energy's undiluted natural gas, is currently used for the desulfurization of crude oil in refineries and for the production of diesel and aircraft fuel through a hydrocracking process. Total Energy's conventional refineries are located in Normandy in northern France, Donge in the northwest, Fezien in the east, Antwerp in Belgium, Zeeland in the Netherlands and Lerner in eastern Germany. Total Energy's only biofuel refinery is located in La Mede, southern France, near Marseille, and can produce 500,000 tons of biodiesel per year. Total's hydrogen from the tender will also supply a biofuel plant in Grandpuits, near Paris, which will begin operations in 2025 and produce sustainable aviation fuel, renewable diesel and renewable naphthalene.
