In the UK, Fuel Cells Works reported that Fortum and City of Kemi have agreed to develop a site located on Kemi’s Ajos island, in Finland, for a hydrogen and/or hydrogen derivatives production plant.
The area is approximately 17 hectares and is located on the western part of the island, according to the report.
Under the agreement, Fortum will develop and market the site to clean transition industrial players. The actual investment in the plant will be made by the project investor.
“The Ajos area offers excellent conditions for a hydrogen project. The proximity to the Port of Kemi ensures logistical efficiency, and the area is already a zoned industrial environment. Additionally, the availability of biogenic carbon dioxide in the Kemi region opens opportunities for producing synthetic fuels and other hydrogen derivatives. These factors make the area highly attractive for hydrogen investors,” said Jyrki Holappa, Customer Site Development Director at Fortum.
