Energy group cleared for hydrogen and e-fuels project in cost-competitive Finland

April 9, 2025

German group ABO Energy has received the green light from planning authorities to build a hydrogen production plant in Oulu, northern Finland.

The first phase of the facility is expected to come online between 2034 and 2036. A final investment decision is still pending.

ABO Energy also plans to utilise the plant’s waste heat for district heating in the Oulu region – the largest producer of renewable electricity in Finland and a growing centre for hydrogen development.
