Hexagon Purus receives order to deliver high-performance hydrogen distribution systems to a leading global industrial gas company
(Oslo, 20 April 2022) Hexagon Purus, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Wystrach GmbH (“Wystrach”), a leading hydrogen systems supplier, has received a follow-on order worth approximately EUR 1.5 million (approx. NOK 14 million) to deliver hydrogen distribution systems to a leading global industrial gas company. This order can be viewed in conjunction with the announcement on February 4, 2022, of a separate order with a value of approximately EUR 5.7 million (approx. NOK 58 million). Wystrach’s hydrogen distribution systems with Hexagon Purus’ type 4 cylinders will be used to deliver hydrogen for industrial and mobility applications in the Netherlands.
Driving Energy Transformation
“This latest order is testament to our technology and confirms our strong offering of high-pressure hydrogen distribution systems and positioning with global industrial gas companies,” says Matthias Kötter, Head of Wystrach Sales, Hexagon Purus. “We are happy to continue to support our customer in their efforts to increase hydrogen distribution in Europe”.
About the market
The industrial and mobility sectors are accountable for close to 50% of annual carbon emissions globally, and hydrogen has a significant role to play in reducing these emissions, particularly in “hard to abate” sectors. Making green hydrogen available for use in industrial processes and mobility is critical to reduce carbon emissions.
As hydrogen, a key contributor to the energy transition, continues to build momentum globally, more than 30 countries have released hydrogen roadmaps, over USD 70 billion in government funding is committed to hydrogen investments, more than 500 large-scale hydrogen projects have been announced by the industry to date and green hydrogen is projected to supply up to 25% of the world’s energy needs by 2050.
Timing
Delivery of the hydrogen systems is scheduled for Q1 2023.
