TotalEnergies has joined forces with Air Liquide to produce renewable hydrogen at its La Mède platform in southeast France. This project aims to significantly reduce annual CO₂ emissions by 130,000 tons from the La Mède biorefinery. The initiative complements the existing Masshylia project, a collaboration between TotalEnergies and ENGIE to produce green hydrogen by electrolysis.
Air Liquide will build and operate a renewable hydrogen production unit with an annual capacity of 25,000 tons. The unit will recycle coproducts from the TotalEnergies biorefinery to create hydrogen, which will then be used to produce biodiesel and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). The total investment for this project is €150 million, with production expected to begin in 2028.
"This new renewable hydrogen production project, carried out with Air Liquide, allows us to accelerate the decarbonization of our La Mède platform," said VINCENT STOQUART, President, Refining & Chemicals at TotalEnergies. "Almost ten years after the announcement of its conversion, La Mède is continuing its transformation and is becoming a low-carbon hydrogen production center, thus contributing to the decarbonization ambition of the Provence-Alpes-Côte-D’azur region."

TotalEnergies is also advancing the Masshylia project, a partnership with ENGIE to produce green hydrogen via water electrolysis. This project, with a capacity of 10,000 tons per year, will contribute to the decarbonization of the biorefinery and serve local customers in the Fos-Berre industrial-port zone. The first 20 MW electrolyser is slated for operation in 2029, pending European and French subsidies and public authorizations.
TotalEnergies is dedicated to reducing the carbon footprint of its energy production, conversion, and supply processes. By incorporating green and low-carbon hydrogen, the company aims to cut its CO₂ emissions by around three million tons annually by 2030. This commitment aligns with TotalEnergies’ broader strategy to decarbonize its European refineries and meet ambitious climate goals.
