UK-based ITM Power announced that it has signed a contract with Westnetz GmbH, a German electricity and gas distributor based in Dortmund, to supply a modular hydrogen plant for the production of hydrogen from modular green hydrogen plant NEPTUNE V. NEPTUNE V.
This unit will be integrated by Westnetz into a project for a subsidiary in the public transport sector as part of efforts to comply with the European Union’s Clean Vehicles Directive. The initiative seeks to deploy a fleet of hydrogen-powered buses completely emission-free buses by 2030.
Proven technology and energy efficiency of NEPTUNE V
The NEPTUNE V is a 5 MW containerized plant based on PEM technology. PEM technology (proton exchange membrane) technology, capable of generating green hydrogen from water and renewable and renewable electricity. Its compact and scalable design makes it an efficient solution for industrial and urban applications.
This technology is based on the TRIDENTdeveloped by ITM, which has demonstrated remarkable operational efficiency and one of the lowest carbon footprints in the world. carbon footprint per megawatt installed in the industry.
Strategic breakthrough for ITM Power
Since its launch in 2024, NEPTUNE V has gained traction in the European market, establishing itself as a modular alternative for hydrogen production. local hydrogen production. production. In the last six months, ITM has closed contracts totaling 45 MW of capacity, evidencing the growing interest in technologies to accelerate the energy transition.
ITM Power CEO Dennis Schulz highlighted the importance of this collaboration as part of a shared vision for clean and sustainable public transportation.
The agreement between the two companies represents a concrete case of how electrolysis powered by renewable sources is moving from strategic plans to practical implementation. This move strengthens the European energy infrastructure and positions clean hydrogen as a key pillar on the road to climate neutrality. climate neutrality.
