On Thursday 21 September in the afternoon, Hydrogenics is  celebrating the completion of two innovative PEM electrolyser projects at their electrolyser manufacturing plant in Oevel (Belgium). The new electrolyers are to be deployed in combination with wind energy

·        2,5 MW electrolyser system  to be delivered for a Power-to-Gas project in Germany with a direct connection to a new wind park,

·        1 MW electrolyser system to be delivered for a Power-to-Power project (including hydrogen storage and re-electrification through a 400 kW fuel cell) in Thailand, with a direct connection to an existing wind park to overcome grid stability issues in the region.

The event will include a high-level political discussion on the role of renewable hydrogen in the energy transition in Europe, Germany, the Netherlands and in Belgium.
