thyssenkrupp nucera and a European customer from a carbon-intensive industry have signed a reservation agreement for production capacities for green H₂. Under this contract the customer secures production capacities for the manufacturing of standardized 20-MW alkaline water electrolysis modules with large scale capacity from the supplier of world-leading technologies for high-efficiency electrolysis plants. The new customer of thyssenkrupp nucera will build a production plant that will use green H₂ to manufacture green products in Europe. The two companies have agreed not to disclose further contract details.

For the first time, a company has decided to use thyssenkrupp nucera’s offer to reserving production capacities. With this option, thyssenkrupp nucera, as a partner at the side of its customers, makes a crucial contribution to secure the overall project supply chain and enables them to take the lead in decarbonizing its industry.

“The use of green H₂ to decarbonize the industry is gaining significant momentum driven by American and European green H₂ programs such as the Inflation Reduction Act and The REPowerEU plan. The ramp-up of the overall supply chain for our electrolyzers requires a close cooperation between the involved companies. We offer capacity reservation agreements which are an excellent example for the close collaboration needed to support the successful implementation of green H₂ projects,” said Dr. Christoph Noeres, Head of Green H₂ thyssenkrupp nucera AG & Co. KGaA.

The new customer relies on an industrial partner with already more than 2.3-GW capacity under construction. This includes one of the largest green H₂ projects in the world to install over 2-GW electrolysis plant for Air Products in Saudi Arabia and the delivery of Shell’s new 200 MW of H₂ facility in the port of Rotterdam. These reference projects prove that thyssenkrupp nucera is the leading technology provider for the industry in the multi 100 MW up to GW range.
