CPH2 has announced the successful completion of Level 1 of the Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) for its MFE110 electrolyser. This milestone represents the first of three sequential stages within the FAT, marking a significant step toward the MFE110 becoming a commercially accepted electrolyser.

The European energy company VoltH2 has selected Sweco as its partner for the design and development of a new green hydrogen production plant in Delfzijl, the Netherlands. The production facility has received the necessary permits and is currently in the design phase.

Plug Power has announced that it has secured an order for 25 MW of proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer systems for a customer in Europe. The project will employ five of Plug’s 5 MW containerized PEM electrolyzers to reduce the carbon footprint of the company by using green hydrogen.

Cipher Neutron has announced that its R&D department has achieved an unprecedented 94.36% efficiency on its Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) electrolyser stack. This groundbreaking advancement promises to significantly reduce the cost of green hydrogen.

Rely, a joint venture created in November 2023 by Technip Energies and John Cockerill, has launched Clear100⁺, a configurable productized plant dedicated to large-scale production of green hydrogen. With its singular product approach, Rely enables a significant reduction in both CAPEX & OPEX, driving down the levelized cost of hydrogen.

Topsoe, ABB, and Fluor have formed an alliance to design a standardized concept for building Topsoe’s next SOEC factory. The aim is to continuously develop processes to reduce costs, enhance safety, and secure an efficient project execution via a standardized approach.

Today, Nordex Electrolyzers – a joint venture between the Government of Navarra and the Nordex Group – inaugurated a test bench at its plant in Lumbier, Spain. The company presented its first in-house-developed prototype of a 500-kW pressurized alkaline electrolyzer to the public.

Nordic energy company Fortum will build a hydrogen production plant in Loviisa, 90 km east of Helsinki. The plant, equipped with Stargate’s electrolyser, will be located near Fortum’s Loviisa nuclear power plant at the Kalla Test Center. Construction is set to begin in summer 2024, with commissioning scheduled for late 2025.

Elcogen has announced that it has recently initiated a collaboration agreement under the Important Projects of Common European Interest scheme (IPCEI) with the Dutch Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) to develop advanced solid oxide electrolysis (SOE) technology for future market demands.

Ceres has been awarded a further contract for the second phase of its collaboration with Shell, to cooperate in the design of a 10 MW solid oxide electrolyser (SOEC) module to produce green hydrogen for use in large-scale industrial applications such as synthetic fuels, ammonia, and green steel.
