In France, The Renewables Infrastructure Group (TRIG) has entered into a Power Purchase Agreement to supply Hyd’Occ, a green hydrogen facility located in Port-la Nouvelle. The PPA is an agreement for TRIG to supply Hyd’Occ with renewable electricity from the company’s onshore wind farms located in the Occitanie region. The green hydrogen production unit is currently under construction and due to be commissioned in 2025. It will contribute to the energy transition through the development of a low-carbon hydrogen industry in the region, the firm said. Minesh Shah, Managing Director for TRIG, said: “Entering into attractive Power Purchase Agreements is an important part of TRIG’s revenue management strategy. Supplying projects such as Hyd’Occ with locally-generated, renewable electricity is another step towards our ambition of a cleaner, more secure future.” Guirec Dufour, Managing Director of Qair France, said: “We are delighted to partner with TRIG to supply part of the electricity needed for renewable hydrogen production in the Occitanie region. Once operational, our production unit will be capable of producing 3,000 tons of renewable hydrogen annually.”
