CPH2 seeks to deploy electrolysers

ABE is an integrated service provider in the field of renewable energy and energy infrastructure, covering the full value chain of energy projects.

The companies have agreed to develop a partnership seeking the supply, installation, commissioning and maintenance of 175 MW of electrolysers over the next 10 years.

The companies will use their combined skills and capabilities in developing opportunities across ABEs and BKWs markets for CPH2s patent protected technology. They will seek commercial opportunities to deploy equipment, installation and commissioning services along with long-term operational and maintenance activities.

Together, the companies are targeting a diverse customer base, including renewable energy producers looking to monetise curtailed wind or solar capacity, and industries where hydrogen and oxygen can boost process efficiency, such as wastewater treatment and semiconductor fabrication. It will also include sectors such as life sciences, healthcare and mobility for essential operations and data centres for long duration back-up storage and dispatch.

The announcement supports Germany's National Hydrogen Strategy, which sets out the Federal Government's ambition to accelerate the use of climate-friendly hydrogen technologies. The strategy targets the deployment of up to 10 GW of domestic green hydrogen production capacity by 2030, supported by significant investment in electrolysers and hydrogen infrastructure.

Commenting on the agreement, Chief Executive Officer of CPH2, Jon Duffy, said: "Together with ABE, BKW is a leading energy and infrastructure group with a significant footprint across Germany and Switzerland. This agreement reinforces the scalability and market appetite for the brand-new category of electrolyser we have developed. Our membrane-free technology offers a lower lifetime cost for producing hydrogen and above medical grade oxygen. We are pleased to be partnering with ABE and BKW to demonstrate how our electrolysers can deliver benefits across their project portfolio, and we look forward to working with them and their end-user customers."

Daniel Lorenzen, General Manager BKW Renewable Energies and Managing Director ABE Gruppe GmbH added: "This exciting partnership builds upon CPH2s existing breakthrough 1 MW membrane-free unit and expands over time with the forthcoming 5 MW unit. With this technology we can offer our customers a more reliable, higher purity, lower lifetime cost of hydrogen and oxygen production for the growing decentralised energy market."
