Synthetic fuels have the potential for a substantial contribution to sustainable mobility, providing also the possibility to store (even seasonal) surplus electric energy. A broad interest in power-to-gas has begun to grow (especially in Europe) in recent years, driven by the increasing share of wind and solar power. Indeed, this technology is considered a long-term solution for renewable electricity surplus storage through gas production. The PtG technology represents a link between the power and gas grids.

Project objectives

  • integrated, by recycling carbon dioxide and exploiting renewable electrical energy
  • intelligent, by providing flexibility and efficiency through its optimal management
  • interoperable, by bridging electrical energy grid with natural gas networks and transport sector
