Lhyfe Purchases Plug-in Electrolysers

Lhyfe enters into an agreement with Plug to supply PEM electrolyzers for renewable hydrogen production.

Please share:

Lhyfe has entered into an agreement with Plug for the delivery of 10 5 MW PEM electrolysers. They are intended for the production of renewable hydrogen. This is the largest order ever placed by a French company. As a result, Lhyfe will be able to deliver renewable hydrogen starting in 2023. It will be used mainly for mobility.

Lhyfe controls electrolysers

Lhyfe, a major player in renewable hydrogen, orders 10 PEM electrolyzers from Plug Power Inc. These electrolyzers, with a total capacity of 50 MW (equivalent to up to 20 tons per day), will enable the production of renewable hydrogen in several plants across Europe. This is the largest order for electrolysers ever placed by a French company.

With these electrolyzers, Lhyfe aims to produce renewable hydrogen from wind and solar energy for the European market. Its delivery would begin in 2023. The renewable hydrogen produced will have a wide range of applications in the mobility sector. It will be able to power forklifts and utility vehicles.

Lhyfe and Plug, which began their strategic relationship in October 2021, also plan to co-develop 300 MW of renewable hydrogen generation by 2025.

Assembled in Europe, the electrolysers will have a unit capacity of 5 MW. It is both the largest turnkey electrolyser that can be installed outdoors and the most compact solution on the market.

At each of its sites, Lhyfe carries out the development, engineering and construction of the hydrogen production unit. Lhyfe also provides the entire production operations and management of renewable energy. As well as the marketing and delivery of renewable hydrogen.

A player in renewable hydrogen

The company currently has a commercial pipeline of 93 projects across Europe. Of these, 20 are in advanced development by 2026 to help decarbonize industry and mobility.

In addition, a research program initiated in 2019 should lead to the entry into the test phase under real conditions of the world’s first floating electrolyser connected to a floating wind turbine in September 2022.
