Doncaster-based CPH2 has completed Level 1 of the Site Acceptance Test for its electrolyser at Northern Ireland Water’s site in Belfast.
CPH2’s commissioning teams have been on site since early January, assembling the system. This is the first of three stages within the test. The Level 1 SAT signifies verification that mechanical and electrical components are checked for completion and that the MFE’s build is in line with with documents and meets relevant safety standards. The test was undertaken by Lagan MEICA Limited, the Contractor to Northern Ireland Water, and was overseen by engineering design specialists Arup.
Lagan MEICA Limited is now proceeding with Levels 2 and 3 of the SAT protocol, with completion expected during the first half of 2025.
CEO Jon Duffy said: “The Level 1 SAT test of the MFE110 is a very positive first step toward the key milestone of achieving first production of hydrogen and oxygen on a customer’s site using MFE scaled technology. We look forward to the continued progress of the process, culminating in what will be a proud moment for the team at CPH2 and Northern Ireland Water as our technology becomes fully functioning in the production of oxygen and hydrogen.”
