Latvenergo, Latvia’s national electricity company, and H2Pro, an Israeli innovator in green hydrogen production, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore the potential of deploying H2Pro’s decoupled electrolysis technology in Latvia.
The MOU formalises a joint commitment to clean energy leadership and highlights the importance of technological innovation in advancing the use of green hydrogen as a key solution for industrial decarbonisation and energy security.

In the first phase of the agreement, Latvenergo and H2Pro will assess the feasibility of testing an electrolyser in the 5MW range within Latvenergo’s energy infrastructure and explore potential opportunities for commercial deployment in future projects.
The collaboration aims to integrate H2Pro’s technology with Latvia’s renewable resources, such as wind and solar, ensuring the long-term economic sustainability of green hydrogen production.
H2Pro CEO Tzahi Rodrig stated: “Latvenergo presents an excellent environment for demonstrating the unique advantages of our technology.
“Latvenergo’s diverse renewable energy portfolio provides the perfect testing ground to validate our electrolyser’s high efficiency across multiple load scenarios, as well as our technology’s seamless integration with renewables thanks to the hyper-flexibility of our system.
“This project is not just about proving technical feasibility — it’s about laying the groundwork for a cost-effective, scaleable green hydrogen economy.”
For Latvenergo, the partnership supports its broader commitment to clean energy innovation, energy independence and decarbonisation.
Latvenergo CEO Dr Mārtiņš Čakste stated: “Public support mechanisms like EU funding play an important role in enabling the green hydrogen transition. Nonetheless, we aim for the economics of any endeavour to stand on its own.
“That’s why we are particularly interested in breakthrough technologies like H2Pro’s decoupled electrolysis, which can reduce capital costs while maintaining high efficiency. Achieving a competitive cost structure is key to unlocking the full potential of green hydrogen in Europe.”
