Stargate Hydrogen has officially opened its new production facility in Tallinn, Estonia. Dedicated to the manufacturing of alkaline electrolysis stacks and systems, the factory has an initial annual production capacity of 140 MW, with the potential to scale up to over 1 GW with minimal additional investment.

ANDRITZ has officially opened its new electrolyzer gigafactory in Erfurt, Germany. The new facility has an initial annual production capacity of approximately one gigawatt, which corresponds to approximately 160 to 200 electrolyzers per year.

thyssenkrupp nucera and Fraunhofer IKTS have opened a pilot production facility for solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) stacks in Arnstadt, Thuringia, Germany. The plant, inaugurated on 27 May, marks the next phase of the partners’ strategic collaboration to industrialise high-temperature electrolysis technology for green hydrogen production.

AVL and Niterra have announced a strategic partnership to jointly develop and industrialise solid oxide electrolyser cell (SOEC) technology for green hydrogen production. The collaboration brings together AVL’s expertise in energy and mobility system integration with Niterra’s decades of experience in ceramic-based electrochemical technologies.

Ceres Power has announced that its first megawatt-scale solid oxide electrolyser cell (SOEC) demonstrator system – located at Shell’s Technology Centre in Bangalore, India – is now operational and producing hydrogen.

HydrogenPro has commenced production of its next-generation electrodes at a new manufacturing line in Aarhus, Denmark. This development marks a significant step in scaling up the company’s delivery capabilities and represents a major investment in its green hydrogen business.

The Hydrohub MegaWatt Test Centre, located at EnTranCe – Centre of Expertise Energy in Groningen, the Netherlands, has successfully produced its first green hydrogen under high pressure and at elevated temperatures (up to 80 °C).

Samsung E&A has announced the launch of CompassH2, a green hydrogen production plant solution developed in collaboration with Norwegian electrolyser manufacturer Nel. According to Samsung E&A, the system is designed to deliver a high level of performance and cost-competitiveness by integrating engineering services with Nel’s electrolyser technology.

Germany’s largest PEM electrolyzer has gone into operation at BASF’s Ludwigshafen site. Designed to produce zero-carbon hydrogen, the electrolyzer has a connected load of 54 MW and a capacity to supply the main plant with up to one metric ton of this chemical feedstock every hour.
