Ukraine will supply clean hydrogen from its Zakarpattia Hydrogen Valley to Slovakia under the recently announced EastGate H2V project.
Hydrogen Ukraine plans to utilise the Zakarpattia region’s abundant renewable energy resources and strategic location in the west to produce large amounts of clean hydrogen.
Supplying hydrogen through the EastGate H2V project in Kosice, Slovakia, is just the first step for Hydrogen Ukraine. The organisation plans to contribute to the Central European Hydrogen Corridor project and connect Ukraine with the wider EU via pipelines.
EastGate H2V was launched last month, set to be the first hydrogen valley in Slovakia. As it’s only small-scale, the project will install a 2MW electrolyser in 2027, capable of producing 170 tonnes of green hydrogen to support local requirements.
