This week begins consultations in Asturias for the Hydrogen backbone network

Last week FAEN was present at the presentation of the Enagas hydrogen backbone in Asturias. Enagas will carry out initial consultations with the territories, in fact, in the region will organize up to 13 meetings with citizens to explain the project. These meetings will start this week.

Enagás has launched a Conceptual Plan for Public Participation (PCPP) for the Spanish hydrogen network that started in April 2025 and will last 18 months.

The company intends to make available to all interested parties the characteristics and fundamental information of the project by involving municipalities and other public administrations, associations and citizens and gathering their contributions.

Main objectives

  • Transparent reporting: share clear information about the future hydrogen network with all stakeholders.
  • Resolve doubts and explain the need and benefits of the project.
  • Involve the community and encourage their active participation in the process.
  • Identify and mitigate impacts in advance and ensure the most appropriate actions to resolve them.
  • Improve project acceptance, taking into account environmental sensitivity and social legitimacy from an early stage.

This is the largest public participation process of its kind in Spain and is currently underway in Asturias and Castilla León.

These are the schedules of the next appointments:
