Hydrogen and renewable energies: Corsica Sole, a key player in the local energy transition

In the press

A local and sustainable energy transition

At Corsica Sole, we firmly believe that the future of the energy transition lies in a local and sustainable approach. Thanks to our expertise in solar energy and storage, we are developing innovative solutions tailored to the needs of island territories. In addition, we integrate these solutions into local electricity grids in order to better manage the energy produced.

The role of renewable hydrogen in Corsica and Europe

Hydrogen is often cited as one of the keys to the energy transition. Although its potential is widely recognised, there are still challenges to be overcome before it can be deployed on a large scale. Nevertheless, it will become a pillar of the European energy model, particularly thanks to its ability to store energy on a seasonal basis. This function is essential to compensate for the intermittency of renewable energies such as solar and wind power.

At Corsica Sole, we are already committed to this change. We are launching concrete projects that initiate a sustainable energy transition. Our conviction is clear: we must act today, through use and experimentation, to make renewable hydrogen in Corsica a local reality.

A local model of production and consumption

At the heart of our approach, we encourage local energy production. Our smart solar projects integrate seamlessly with existing networks. This allows for more efficient energy management and a better balance between production and consumption.

In island territories, the challenges are numerous. Therefore, we propose to create local production and consumption loops. The objective is twofold: to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and to strengthen the energy autonomy of each island.

Concrete projects for hydrogen

Even though the hydrogen sector is slow to become widespread, Corsica Sole is already initiating concrete projects. Renewable hydrogen in Corsica, produced from our solar power plants, offers an ideal solution for storing energy over long periods. It also allows energy to be restored during peak consumption periods.

One of our pilot projects involves the boat Alba from the Lycée Maritime de Bastia. This project aims to experiment with the use of hydrogen in maritime transport, a key sector for the energy transition. In this way, we are testing new technologies and actively participating in the development of hydrogen as a sustainable solution for mobility in Corsica.

Acting today for a sustainable energy future

The energy transition cannot wait any longer. At Corsica Sole, we are implementing concrete solutions today to build the energy of tomorrow. Renewable hydrogen in Corsica, solar energy and storage are not distant concepts: they are our tools for transforming island territories.

We are proud to play a leading role in this evolution, with a solid vision rooted in our Corsican DNA. Innovating, respecting the environment and acting locally: this is how we will meet the energy challenges of the 21st century together.
