Headed by the Minister of Energy, Diego Pardow, the Ambassador of Chile in the Netherlands, Jorge Carvajal, and the Commercial Director of ProChile, Osvaldo Marinao; our country's stand at the World Hydrogen Summit 2025, in Rotterdam, was inaugurated. The ceremony was attended by the city's Mayor, Carola Schouten, and the CEO of the Port of Rotterdam, Boudewijn Siemons.
More than 60 companies and public and private organizations are part of the national delegation, with representatives from AES Corporation, Colbún, Fraunhofer Chile, Gasmar, Acciona Nordex, Techint, Wood, Marval, Arcadis, Free Power, EINAS, Sumitomo Corporation and ECIT, in addition to the associations PRI Biobío, H2 Chile, H2 Antofagasta and H2 Magallanes, who had the opportunity to visit the Port of Rotterdam, participate in the most important exhibition at European and global level, as well as seminars on business opportunities in Chile, carried out with the support of the Ministry of Energy, ProChile, the Chilean Embassy in the Netherlands, InvestChile and Corfo.

In this regard, the Minister of Energy, Diego Pardow, emphasizes that "with the European Union, we have a long history of working together on the development of renewable energy. There is no doubt that being part of these types of global meetings is essential for showcasing the progress of the green hydrogen industry we are developing in our country, which contributes to promoting economic development, capacity building, and job creation in the poles where projects will be located."
In that regard, the Commercial Director of ProChile in the Netherlands, Osvaldo Marinao, adds that "we are one of the countries with the greatest potential for green hydrogen exports in the world, while the Netherlands has the infrastructure and logistics to carry out distribution and storage. Therefore, we believe that both countries have what it takes to enhance their attributes and create business ties that will allow us to develop a sustainable industry."
The international promotion instance allows small and medium enterprises of various sizes to connect with counterparts like the Port of Rotterdam, the largest in Europe, with whom Chile has a MOU (memorandum of understanding) for the export of green hydrogen since 2021.

It is in this context and with the aim of strengthening Chile's global position in terms of hydrogen development, that the national delegation will be showcasing innovative work, partnerships, and key projects for the energy transition that are being worked on around H2V, reaffirming its commitment to a decarbonized economy and, in addition, its consolidation as a reliable partner for Europe in the green hydrogen value chain.
