Saudi Arabia and SEFE to Export 200,000 Tons of Green Hydrogen to Europe by 2030

Saudi Arabia’s push to diversify its energy game just hit a massive milestone. In early 2025, ACWA Power inked a prime deal with Germany’s SEFE Energy—the type of partnership that moves the needle. The two signed an agreement heading to deliver 200,000 tons of green hydrogen a year to Europe via 2030. It’s a big win for the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 plan to by beyond oil and step right into a leading role in the growing green hydrogen market.

Creating the Future: The Yanbu Hydrogen Hub

The heart of this venture is the Yanbu Green Hydrogen Hub, snugged on Saudi Arabia’s western coast. Once it’s up and operating in 2030, this pioneering facility will mix together large-scale renewable energy, pinnacle-tier electrolysis structures, tech to transform hydrogen into clean ammonia for less difficult shipping, and the infrastructure to relocate all that hydrogen to Europe. With backing from EnBW and the Ministry of Energy, this hub isn’t just another hydrogen venture—it’s tailoring up to be one of the most advanced hydrogen manufacturing giants in the world.

Why It Matters: Europe’s Energy Pain Meets Saudi Ambition

This deal isn’t occurring in a vacuum—it’s proper on time for Europe. After Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, European nations were climbing to wean themselves off Russian energy. Connect that urgency with the commitments beneath the European Green Deal, and Saudi Arabia’s hydrogen supply seems distinctly appealing.

SEFE Energy—which was once Gazprom Germania—has rebranded and repositioned itself as a main player in Europe’s non-Russian energy future. This partnership offers Germany and other EU nations a more stable, sustainable energy source even as supporting them stick to their long-time climate goals.

How It Works: From Sun and Wind to Clean Ammonia

  • Green Hydrogen by Electrolysis: Using solar and wind power to split water into hydrogen and oxygen—which means that zero emissions and most sustainability.
  • Ammonia Conversion: To make shipping less difficult and cheaper, the hydrogen get turned into clean ammonia. It’s then shipped to Europe, wherein it’s transformed back—sure, a bit of energy is lost in the process, but it’s nevertheless far more efficient at scale.
  • HVDC Transmission: Long-distance electricity exports gets a lift from agreements with Siemens Energy, GE Vernova, Prysmian, and others. Together, they’re constructing the infrastructure to push renewable energy throughout borders efficiently.

The Big Picture: Money, Jobs, and Global effects

  • The venture is about to deliver more than $250 billion in energy assets underneath ACWA Power’s belt by 2030—think about the effect on Saudi Arabia’s GDP and job market.
  • Manufacturing prices for hydrogen in Saudi Arabia are predicted to hover around $1.50 per kilogram—way under the worldwide average of $5/kg. That’s a serious edge in the race for less costly sustainable energy.
  • From fueling EU decarbonization to driving local industry, the whole value chain is a win for each facets of the deal.

Next Moves: Expanding the Pipeline

This isn’t a one-off venture. ACWA Power is likewise teaming up with worldwide heavyweights like TotalEnergies Renewables (France), Edison S.P.A. (Italy), and Zhero Europe (Netherlands) to construct a broader energy export corridor linking the Gulf with Europe. It’s all a part of a larger push to create a absolutely international energy market—pushed by high-efficiency tech and coordinated policy frameworks.

Where It’s Headed

What we’re seeing now’s just the starting. With ACWA Power’s massive renewable energy pipeline and mega-ventures like Neom’s Helios on the horizon, Saudi Arabia isn’t simply playing in the green hydrogen space—it’s going for global leadership.

Low-price hydrogen manufacturing, deep partnerships across Europe, assist from GCC governments, and soaring call for from energy-hungry nations—all signs point to one thing: Europe’s hydrogen future would possibly simply be fueled by the Saudi sun.
