Global Hydrogen Review,
Accelera is partnering with Tyczka Hydrogen GmbH, a European hydrogen specialist, to deploy a 5 MW proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyser system at the Port of Schweinfurt in Bavaria, Germany. Powered by renewable solar and wind energy, the system will generate up to 2.2 tpd of green hydrogen to support decarbonisation across mobility, industrial and research sectors in central Germany.
"This collaboration with Tyczka Hydrogen underscores our commitment to advancing the hydrogen economy across Europe," said Des McMenamin, General Manager of Electrolysers for Accelera. "By deploying our HyLYZER technology at this strategic location in Bavaria, we are helping to facilitate the development of a regional hydrogen value chain – from production to end-use – and accelerating the transition to zero-emissions transportation and industry."
"The electrolyser is an important part of our production plant. The performance of this unit is key to our success at our hydrogen hub in Bavaria. We are confident that with Accelera we have found an experienced partner to achieve a high level of safety, quality, availability, and efficiency," commented Jürgen Schmidt, Head of Technology & Engineering at Tyczka Hydrogen GmbH. "Together with our strong trailer-fleet and the extensive network of green hydrogen sources, this new hub will significantly complement our already strong value chain.”
Project highlights
- Advanced technology: two Accelera HyLYZER® 500 electrolysers will deliver 5MW of capacity, producing up to 2.2 tpd of green hydrogen for mobility, industrial, and research & development (R&D) applications.
- Powered by renewable energy: utilising electricity from solar and wind sources, the electrolyser system will produce zero-emissions hydrogen.
- Prime location: the electrolyser system will be installed at the Port of Schweinfurt, a central logistics hub in Bavaria with direct access to major highways, industrial infrastructure, and the SüdLink DC grid connection – providing reliable access to renewable energy.
- Environmental impact: the project is expected to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by more than 6000 tpy compared to fossil fuel alternatives – equivalent to removing approximately 1400 passenger vehicles from the road.
- Government support: backed by a €5 million grant from the Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs through their Electrolyser Funding Program, the project highlights a strong government commitment to hydrogen infrastructure and clean energy innovation.
