H-TEC SYSTEMS, Bilfinger join forces on green hydrogen project development in Europe

PEM electrolysis technology provider H-TEC SYSTEMS and industrial services provider Bilfinger have signed a Memorandum of Understanding for a collaboration aimed at jointly developing green hydrogen projects in Europe. The non-exclusive strategic partnership is centered on the development of large-scale electrolysis projects.

A core element of the collaborative initiative between H-TEC SYSTEMS and Bilfinger is to jointly develop green hydrogen project concepts and to align technical and commercial interfaces between both parties. This approach will not only allow flexibility regarding project-specific contractual setups but also ensures seamless integration of expertise for optimized project outcomes.

Large-scale electrolysis projects typically entail a core electrolysis scope, which is usually covered by an OEM, and balance-of-plant related elements, for which clients typically engage an EPC/EPCM company or plant integrator. Clearly defined interfaces and elaborated standardized plant concepts are considered substantial value-adds for all involved parties.

Under the agreement, both parties intend to consider working together as preferred partners for suitable projects in which they see mutual value creation through their complementary offerings.

“We are very pleased about the collaboration with H-TEC SYSTEMS, tailored to meet the growing needs of our clients while optimizing project execution and efficiency“, said Ulrich Trebbe, Product Manager H2 at Bilfinger. “Our companies can meaningfully contribute to the sustainable transition of our energy system towards zero-carbon technologies. In this transformation, innovation, and technology leadership as well as cost attractiveness and customer centricity will play a key role.”

“We are delighted to enter this partnership with Bilfinger”, said Robin von Plettenberg, CEO of H-TEC SYSTEMS. “Our collaboration presents a core value proposition to joint customers. Clients who intend to invest in a green hydrogen plant are seeking reliable and trustful partners who can offer standardized, optimized, and repeatable plant concepts and thus contribute to reducing the overall complexity, risks, and costs of a project.”
