Solvay and Sapio sign ten-year agreement for the production of renewable hydrogen in Rosignano, Italy
Solvay and Sapio have entered a 10-year agreement to collaborate on renewable hydrogen production at Solvay’s Rosignano facility, part of the Hydrogen Valley Rosignano Project aimed at cutting CO2 emissions from Solvay’s peroxides operations.
Under the agreement, Sapio will construct and manage a 5 MW electrolysis system, powered by a 10 MW photovoltaic installation built by Solvay. The project, expected to be operational by mid-2026, will produce up to 756 tons of renewable hydrogen annually, reducing the site CO2 emissions by up to 15%. It has received €16 million in funding from the Tuscan Region under Italy’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR).
