Moeve begins Europe's largest green hydrogen initiative in Spain
What happened
Moeve reported robust nine-month 2026 results, with total capital expenditure reaching a record €885 million. The company invested 93% of this capex in Spain, including the start of construction for the Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley, Europe’s largest green hydrogen initiative. Moeve also committed €2.4 billion to green hydrogen and second-generation biofuels. Clean CCS EBITDA reached €2,409 million, supported by increased production of transport fuels.

Why it matters
The initiative is part of a broader trend where Spain is leading the development of e-fuels. Moeve's expansion into clean energy projects, which accounted for 69% of total investment, highlights the increasing role of green hydrogen in the European energy transition.
