HyX is the latest pilot for the production of green hydrogen in green hydrogen production pilot in Chile to obtain environmental permit for its development. The project, owned by French electric utility Engiewill produce green hydrogen that will be sold to Enaex. Enaex to produce ammoniaammonia, an input used in the manufacture of explosives for mining.

The project is located in the region of Antofagastaregion, where there are other green hydrogen projects -such as Hoasisa project of the company TCI Gecomp and which has the support of the University of Concepción-which are turning this region into a potential hub for green hydrogen projects. green hydrogen.

Concepcion -where a green hydrogen project is located by CAPfor the Huachipato steel Huachipato-is also organizing to become a hub for green hydrogen projects with the FIC project, a public-private research and development partnership led by the University of Concepción.

These initiatives are in addition to those located in the Magallanes region, in the southernmost part of the countryin the extreme south of the country, where HIF has already begun construction of its pilot plant for the production of synthetic fuels from green hydrogen. There, the French company Total Eren has begun studies for the H2 Magallanes megaproject, as has France's Total Eren.megaproject, as has Austria Energy y Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners with the HNH project.
