Summary/Abstract: Advancing green energy is consistent with the strategies of many global energy companies, which embark on environmentally friendly projects with a view to reducing emissions. The increasing ambition of climate targets creates a major role for green hydrogen, produced by water electrolysis using electricity from renewable sources (RES). The purpose of the article was to present the hydrogen project implemented and applied by Polish Oil and Gas Company (PGNiG). The comprehensive hydrogen program consisting of several projects ranging from green hydrogen production, through hydrogen storage and distribution, to industrial power generation applications. In particular, program lists three complementary projects. As part of the Power to Gas project is building an installation which will allow to test the impact of various mixtures of natural gas and hydrogen on gas system infrastructures. The second project is the large-scale hydrogen storage in caverns, which is especially important for green hydrogen from unstable energy sources. Finally, the third project it will be the first laboratory in Poland to study hydrogen and its mixtures as fuel.
