Vilnius is constructing a 10 million-euro green hydrogen plant to power its public transport, expected to start production by autumn. Developed by Miesto Gijos, the plant will supply hydrogen for the city's first hydrogen-fueled buses, with 10 buses planned for initial deployment.

A public tender for bus suppliers will conclude in March, and operations are set to begin in November. The facility will produce up to 3.45 million cubic meters of green hydrogen annually using electrolysis, and excess heat will be utilized in the district heating network. The European Union is funding 70% of the project.
