Swiss energy group Alpiq acquires 54.9% of P2X Solutions, based in Espoo, Finland. This fusion marks a significant step forward in the production ofgreen hydrogen, essential for industrial decarbonization. Alpiq’s choice is based on P2X Solutions’ expertise and innovation, affirming its commitment to climate protection and energy security. Founder Herkko Plit remains CEO, ensuring strategic continuity.

Expansion and shared ambitions

P2X Solutions, a Power-to-X specialist, is developing Finland’s first industrial green hydrogen plant, due to be operational in early 2025. With a capacity of 20 MW, it is one of the largest in Europe. This partnership with Alpiq, already involved in several PPAs (Power Purchase Agreements) in the North, reinforces the growth and expansion ambitions of both entities, particularly in the Nordic countries.
