Renewable hydrogen produced directly from wind power has become a reality. At the end of August, Lhyfe began producing its first hundred kilograms of ecological hydrogen – and the company is now ready for industrial scale production.
Following a few days of testing at this first site, Lhyfe has produced 627 kilograms of renewable hydrogen, using an electrolyser powered by wind turbines a few metres away.
The purpose of this initial production was to finalise tests, before the end of September when industrial production and sales will start for new partners whose names will be revealed soon. Lhyfe will henceforth produce 300 kilograms of renewable hydrogen a day, before ramping up to a tonne a day in the coming months.
This industrial production facility for renewable hydrogen, connected directly to a wind farm, is a unique technical achievement and the first of its kind in the world. This site is fully in line with the acceleration of hydrogen deployment around the world and in the strategic plans of a growing number of countries.
