Sheffield-based ITM Power has signed a contract to supply four of its green energy NEPTUNE V units, totalling 20MW, to independent multi-energy producer La Française de l’Energie SA (FDE).
The units will be part of the first phase of Norway’s Hydrogen Hub Agder project, 100% owned by Greenstat, a subsidiary of FDE, developing green energy production projects in Norway. The 20MW green hydrogen hub facility will be dedicated to supplying the maritime industry, and production is expected to start late next year, with a second phase involving an additional 40MW, planned for launch in 2027.
Dennis Schulz, CEO of ITM, said: “The Nordic countries present an exciting opportunity for green hydrogen, and it is a privilege that FDE has selected us for the Agder Hydrogen Hub in Norway.”
Antoine Forcinal, CEO of FDE, said: “We are delighted to work with ITM as a partner for the supply of an integrated electrolyser solution for our Agder Hydrogen Hub project, one of the largest green hydrogen projects in Norway.”
