The 300kW plant is the first and only rapid response PEM electrolyser plant to be injecting hydrogen into the German gas network.
The house broker comments how it confirms that demand-side grid balancing by power-to-gas (“P2G”) for the storage of intermittent renewable energy (including wind) is increasing in likelihood as the mass market solution, and that ITM’s electrolysis platform is becoming embedded at the early stages of P2G infrastructure roll-out in…
