Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APD#NYSE">APD</a>) shares are trading higher after it inked a 15-year agreement with TotalEnergies SE (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTE#NYSE">TTE</a>) to supply 70,000 tons of green hydrogen <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/06/n39226464/decarbonization-of-european-refineries-a-first-agreement-signed-between-totalenergies-and-air-prod" rel="noreferrer noopener">annually in Europe, starting in 2030</a>.



Under the agreement, Air Products will supply green hydrogen to TotalEnergies&#8217; Northern European refineries, reducing CO2 emissions by 700,000 tons annually.



This first long-term deal follows TotalEnergies&#8217; call for tenders to supply 500,000 tons of green hydrogen per year to decarbonize its European refineries.



This contract supports TotalEnergies&#8217; goal of reducing net greenhouse gas emissions from its operations (Scope 1+2) by 40% by 2030 compared to 2015 levels.



Also, Air Products has committed over $15 billion to large-scale energy transition projects and launched several major low-carbon hydrogen initiatives worldwide, establishing itself as a reliable supplier.



Simultaneously, TotalEnergies and Air Products penned a memorandum of understanding for the supply of renewable power, including an initial Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for 150 MW from a solar project in Texas.



The companies also plan to further explore PPA opportunities in the U.K., Poland, and France.



Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies said, &#8220;This deal with Air Products, the first signed following the call for tenders launched last year, is a steppingstone towards our goal of decarbonizing the hydrogen used in TotalEnergies&#8217; refineries in&nbsp;Northern Europe&nbsp;by the end of the decade.&#8221;



&#8220;Once again, we demonstrate our capacity to pioneer the energy transition and contribute to the emergence of a green hydrogen industry by offering long-term contracts with our six refineries and two biorefineries in&nbsp;Europe.&#8221;



Air Products&#8217; Chairman, President and CEO&nbsp;Seifi Ghasemi commented, &#8220;We always believed that if we made clean hydrogen available at commercial scale, the demand would be there. This contract validates our long-term strategy. Clearly the demand is here, and it will grow significantly as we move forward, playing an essential role in decarbonizing heavy industry and other sectors.&#8221;&nbsp;
