Baltic: Hydrogen corridor to connect Baltic Sea countries by 2040: study

The three Baltic States, together with Finland, Poland, and Germany, should build a green hydrogen corridor by 2040, according to a feasibility study commissioned by the Nordic and Baltic gas transmission system operators, BNS reports. The 2,500-kilometre corridor would transport up to 2.7 million tonnes of hydrogen fuel per year. The corridor could reduce CO2 emissions by up to 37 million tonnes by 2050, the study estimated. The European Commission has granted the project the status of a project of common interest, making the project eligible for EU funding.
