In Latvia, The Baltic Times reported that green hydrogen plant developer SIA CIS Liepaja and the petrochemical products storage and transshipment terminal LSEZ SIA NorSAF, which is developing one of the largest sustainable aviation fuel and synthetic fuel (eSAF) production facilities in Europe in Liepaja, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to strengthen cooperation in the Liepaja Special Economic Zone.
By signing the MoU, the companies have agreed to cooperate in developing green hydrogen and SAF, eSAF production in the Liepaja Special Economic Zone. CIS Liepaja will supply green hydrogen as a feedstock for eSAF production at the planned NorSAF facility. The purpose of the memorandum is to strengthen close and coordinated cooperation in order to identify the most suitable technical, commercial, and infrastructure development solutions for the advancement of SAF, eSAF and green hydrogen production facilities, according to the report.
The report also noted that CIS Liepaja plans to establish a renewable energy complex by 2030, including the construction of one of the largest and most advanced green hydrogen production plants in Northern Europe. The hydrogen plant is expected to produce up to 21,200 tons of green hydrogen annually. A significant share of this output is planned for export to Germany and other EU member states, supporting Europe’s transition to a carbon-neutral economy.
