Background

The MosaHYc (Mosel Saar HYdrogen Conversion) project includes conversion of two existing pipelines into a 70-km pure hydrogen infrastructure, connecting Völklingen (Germany), Carling (France), Bouzonville (France) and Perl (Germany), capable to transport up to 20,000 m³/h (60 MW) of pure hydrogen. It will connect the eastern France Moselle region with German's Saarland state.

In April 2024, Engie and Creos Deutschland announced that Engie and its subsidiary GRTgaz had taken FID on the €110 million project. Germany's Creos Deutschland, responsible for developing the Saarland section, said FID still depended on German government state funding via the IPCEI (Important Project of Comment European Interest) process.
