Finland announced plans on Wednesday to build a hydrogen transmission network to help reduce carbon emissions and bolster the long-term security of its energy supplies following its decision to stop using Russian gas.
Finance Minister Annika Saarikko said state-owned Gasgrid Finland, which has so far handled natural gas mostly from Russia, would build the network over the next several years.
Gasgrid Finland will found a subsidiary that will develop the hydrogen transmission network first in Finland and later abroad, Saarikko said, adding production of hydrogen would be left to private companies.
