UTIS, in partnership with Gasvalpo Energies and project collaborators TRA | Tecnolog\u00edas de Remediaci\u00f3n Ambiental \/ BussoGroup, proudly announces the successful completion of the H2GN Project \u2014 the first-ever injection of green hydrogen into Chile\u2019s natural gas networks in Coquimbo and La Serena. This pioneering initiative marks a significant milestone in Chile\u2019s energy transition towards sustainable and low-carbon solutions.<\/span><\/p>\n

The H2GN Project, recognized with the prestigious 2024 Avonni National Innovation Award<\/strong> in the Reconocimiento Costamar Isa V\u00edas<\/em> category, showcases cutting-edge technology developed by UTIS to safely and efficiently blend green hydrogen (H\u2082) into existing natural gas infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n

In May 2025, the UTIS commissioning team conducted on-site technical training with the Gasvalpo team, ensuring the system\u2019s readiness for hydrogen injection. The collaboration also included engagement with local academia, highlighted by a visit from professors and students of the specialized hydrogen program at Ceduc UCN University, underscoring the importance of integrating industry innovation with technical education.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis achievement demonstrates the potential of hydrogen as a viable energy vector for decarbonizing traditional gas networks,\u201d said Paulo Gon\u00e7alo, CEO at UTIS. \u201cOur technology enables practical and scalable applications that contribute directly to Chile\u2019s climate goals.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

UTIS extends its gratitude to all project partners for their trust and collaboration, including TRA | Tecnolog\u00edas de Remediaci\u00f3n Ambiental, BussoGroup, Gasvalpo, and Energas, whose shared vision made this landmark project possible.<\/span><\/p>\n
