The Lleida entrepreneur Sisco Sapena is preparing the jump to the stock market in BME Scale, the new segment of the Spanish stock market, for his renewable energy company that focuses on looking for visionary entrepreneurs who develop new formulas for creating green hydrogen, called H2PLT.
For its part and to carry out this process, H2PLT has hired Solventis as a registered advisor, as the entity has reported in an official statement to which EFE has had access. In addition, this company aims to establish the first green hydrogen microgeneration network in Spain. Based in Lleida, the company strives to explore hitherto underdeveloped applications for the innovative use of hydrogen.
In its beginnings, H2PLT has 80 hectares in the solar park of El Pedernoso (Cuenca), with capacity to house photovoltaic installations with a total power of 40 MW, as explained by the author of this project, Sapena, in statements to EFE.
Green hydrogen by electrolysis
Sapena’s idea is to locate there several photovoltaic plants dedicated exclusively to the generation of green hydrogen, a model that he believes could be replicated in other parts of Spain and Europe.
This engineer plans to use small photovoltaic farms and surplus solar electricity to make green hydrogen through electrolysis. Thanks to this process, hydrogen is stored and then converted into electricity when needed by a fuel cell.
Green hydrogen is obtained by renewable energy sources and is usually obtained by electrolysis technique, by which the water molecule is separated into hydrogen and oxygen.
