This week, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau signed an agreement whereby Canada will start supplying Germany with green hydrogen from 2025.
The authorities signed the agreement on the island of Newfoundland, on the Atlantic coast of Canada, near where a wind farm is planned to be built to generate the electricity necessary for the production of hydrogen.
The two countries signed the agreement despite the fact that Canada does not yet have a plant to produce hydrogen in operation.
After Scholz’s visit to Canada ended, Trudeau pointed out on his Twitter account that “Canada can be the reliable provider of clean energy” that the world needs to achieve the goal of zero emissions, and cited the agreement signed with Germany as an example. for hydrogen supply.
Earlier, also on Tuesday, the Canadian authorities signed two agreements with Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz that ensure the two German carmakers raw materials for the production of batteries and electric vehicles.
