ITM Power Seals PEM Electrolyser Deal With Hygen

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on gasworld.

These three paragraphs give details of the deal.

ITM Power has struck a partnership with Hygen Energy to become the preferred supplier for Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolysers for major hydrogen projects within the UK and across Europe.

Hygen, a leading developer, producer and asset owner of low-carbon hydrogen production on the continent, focusing on the decarbonisation of mobility, construction and hard-to-electrify industries and power, is targeting 200 Megawatt (MW) of electrolyser projects across the continent.

The two-phase collaboration will see 50 MW of Neptune Plug and Play electrolysers across several projects, many of which will be based on UK government HAR2 or similar funding programmes, followed by 150 MW of larger-scale modular electrolysers. Each project will be subject to a Final Investment Decision (FID).

Note.

  1. This page on the iTM Power web site gives details of the Neptune electrolyser.
  2. Neptune appears to be a 2 MW electrolyser, so the first phase could be around 25 electrolysers.
  3. This news item on the iTM Power web site is entitled iTM Power And Sumitomo Complete Installation Of First If Its Kind Demonstration Electrolyser Un Japan.

Things seem to be looking up for iTM Power.

Conclusion

I can see a time in the not to distant future, where a large number of small-to-medium size electrolysers will be mopping up surplus electricity to create hydrogen.
