September 13 – BP and Iberdrola have given the green light for construction of a 25 MW green hydrogen project at BP's Castellón refinery which is expected to be operational in the second half of 2026. This is the first hydrogen project jointly undertaken by BP and Iberdrola through Castellón Green Hydrogen, a joint venture equally owned by both companies. The project was presented at an official event to publicly celebrate the signing in July 2024 of the final investment decision between BP and Iberdrola.
This initiative, which includes the participation of the Technology Institute of Energy (ITE), has been awarded funding of 15 million euros from the Innovative Value Chain and Renewable Hydrogen Knowledge call of the Spanish Recovery, Transformation, and Resilience Plan, with funding allocated by Nextgeneration EU of the European Union.
“BP’s first investment decision for an industrial scale project is an important step forward for our hydrogen business. We are focused on value, progressing only the best projects in our portfolio that can create additional value through integration and fully meet our investment hurdles. This also demonstrates the strength of partners combining their strengths to advance a nascent energy source that has the potential to play a meaningful role in decarbonizing the industry. Castellón refinery can lead the way with its transformation,” shares Felipe Arbelaez, BP’s senior vice president, hydrogen & CCS.
Millán Garcia-Tola, Global Director of Hydrogen in Iberdrola said, “This partnership with BP and our project is another step in Iberdrola's firm and real commitment to promote green hydrogen as a key vector for industrial decarbonization. The plant will convert 200 GWh/yr of Iberdrola’s renewable energy into green hydrogen that will contribute to BP’s decarbonization strategy, in another example of close collaboration between both companies, reliable partners that share values as long term decarbonization commitment. Iberdrola will apply all the experience of its existing green hydrogen plants to optimize and accelerate the development of this project”.
“This project marks a milestone in our strategy and reflects the importance of collaboration, both with other companies that share our vision, such as Iberdrola, and in the public-private sphere. In this way, we not only advance the transformation of our infrastructure in Castellón, but also aim to strengthen the economic fabric and industrial capacity of the entire Valencia region,” said Olvido Moraleda, President of BP Energía España.
The 25 MW electrolyzer will be powered by renewable electricity through a power purchase agreement (PPA) signed with Iberdrola that will supply 200GWh/year coming from Iberdrola’s photovoltaic and wind projects. The electrolyzer will include 5 modules of 5 MW containerized proton exchange membrane (PEM) technology, which will be supplied by Plug Power, a leading manufacturer of green hydrogen solutions. The green hydrogen produced by the electrolysis of water powered by renewable electricity will comply with European requirements to produce green hydrogen (Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin, RFNBO) and will support the transition of BP’s Castellón refinery into an integrated energy hub.
It’s expected around 2,800 annual tons of green hydrogen could substitute part of the grey hydrogen currently used by the refinery – currently produced from natural gas – and as such is expected to result in avoiding the emission of 23,000 tons of CO2 per year, equivalent to the emissions of 5,000 cars over the same period. This plant could create up to 500 new direct jobs during its construction.

September 17 – On September 11, SK Energy, the largest refiner in South Korea and a subsidiary of SK Innovation, announced the completion of the nation’s first dedicated Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production line. The new facility, which leverages advanced co-processing technology, is set to commence commercial production next month. This marks a significant milestone in the company’s ongoing efforts to lead the rapidly expanding SAF market, a burgeoning field within the refining industry.
SAF is a type of aviation biofuel with similar chemical properties to jet fuels but a smaller carbon footprint. The co-processing method-based SAF production line integrates bio-feedstocks with traditional oil production processes, allowing simultaneous production of petroleum and low-carbon products. A dedicated five-kilometer pipeline is installed to feed bio-feedstocks continuously into the oil product manufacturing process, enabling continuous SAF production.
Once commercial production starts, SK Energy will complete a value chain encompassing raw material procurement, production, and sales for the SAF business. Last year, SK Trading International, another SK Innovation subsidiary, invested in waste-based raw material suppliers to ensure a consistent supply of bio-feedstocks. Furthermore, SK Energy is collaborating with Infinium to develop e-fuel technologies that utilize green hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
In June, SK Energy achieved multiple critical certifications to support SAF production and sales, including ISCC Corsia, which officially recognizes SAF production for the international aviation sector. The company also secured ISCC EU certification under the European Union’s Renewable Energy Directive (RED) and ISCC Plus certification for environmentally friendly products in the voluntary market.
Starting early next year, SK Energy will supply SAF to Korean Air passenger flights, a pivotal move that aligns with the company’s broader strategy for market expansion. This initiative follows a recent event on August 30 at Incheon International Airport where SK Energy, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, Incheon International Airport Corporation, and Korean Air celebrated the commercial operation of domestically produced SAF.
The global SAF market is poised for tremendous growth. According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), global SAF demand is projected to increase nearly 70-fold, from 240,000 tons in 2022 to 18.35 million tons by 2030. Domestically, the Korean Government plans to mandate SAF blending in all international flights departing from Korea starting in 2027.
“As the first company in Korea to achieve continuous SAF production through co-processing, we are well-prepared to meet the upcoming mandatory SAF blending requirements,” said Hong Kwang-pyo, Head of Strategy Division at SK Energy. “We will continue to monitor both domestic and international SAF policies and market conditions closely to explore further expansion of our SAF production capabilities.”
