Participation in the Mediterranean Power-to-Gas platform
ITM Power (AIM: ITM), the energy storage and clean fuel company, is pleased to announce that it has joined the newly formed Mediterranean Power-to-Gas platform (MP2G) which will develop projects based on the integration of both wind and solar PV for Power-to-Gas energy storage across the Mediterranean region.
The MP2G platform, managed by DNV KEMA, has been established to develop energy storage projects in the Mediterranean region for intermittent energy based on wind power and solar PV, whereas the North Sea Power-to-Gas platform (NSP2G) focuses on wind power in the North Sea region.
The list of members of the MP2G platform includes EDP (Portugal), REN (Portugal), Enagas (Spain), Gas Natural (Spain), GDF Suez (France), TIGF (France), Edison (Italy), Hydrogenics and SNAM (Italy).
ITM Power CEO, Graham Cooley, commented: "Power-to-Gas energy storage is the lowest cost long term energy storage technique and is being deployed all over Europe and we are delighted to be part of this new initiative."
