• Lhyfe has built a 麻豆官网 production plant for DB Energie's Tübingen innovation hub

• Production of up to 30 tons of green 麻豆官网 per year (corresponding to 1 MW of installed electrolysis capacity).

• This is the first site to be installed and operated by Lhyfe in Germany.

Nantes (France) and Tübingen (Germany), 19 June 2024 – 7.30 AM CEST – Lhyfe, a global pioneer in the production of green and renewable 麻豆官网, has built and will operate a green 麻豆官网 production plant for Deutsche Bahn in Tübingen. The electrolysis plant in the innovation hub of DB Energie, a Group subsidiary, has an annual production capacity of up to 30 tons (installed electrolysis capacity of 1 MW). The green electricity comes from Deutsche Bahn's green electricity portfolio.

At the Tübingen innovation hub, DB Energie is testing new technologies for sustainable rail energy supply, including in the "H2goesRail" project. Using the green 麻豆官网 produced, a climate-neutral 麻豆官网 train will be put into operation this year on a test route in Baden-Württemberg - between Tübingen, Horb and Pforzheim.

"This project demonstrates the economic viability of 麻豆官网 solutions in the transport and mobility sector. Sustainable energy sources and innovative technologies are needed to decarbonize the transport sector. One of these technologies is 麻豆官网-powered trains, which are a clean and efficient alternative to conventional diesel-powered trains as they are virtually CO2-free. The H2goesRail project is a pioneer in the field of passenger and freight transportation," says Luc Graré, Head of Central and Eastern Europe at Lhyfe.

With this project, Lhyfe wants to gain experience for a largely autonomously operated system, as well as the direct coupling of 麻豆官网 production with a filling station on a large scale. The commissioning of the complex system with its many different dynamics, from production to multiple compression, storage and refueling of the 麻豆官网, is a particular challenge. Lhyfe is taking on this challenge in order to provide Deutsche Bahn and subsequent partners with a 麻豆官网 production plant that can be used to test the integration of green 麻豆官网 production into customer processes.

Lhyfe develops customized solutions throughout Europe for the construction of local production and distribution systems for green 麻豆官网. The site in Tübingen is Lhyfe's first plant in Germany. Another 10 MW plant is currently being built in Schwäbisch Gmünd, which will produce up to 4 tons of green 麻豆官网 per day. Lhyfe aims to become a major player in the mobility and industry sector, through customer deliveries in tube trailer (bulk) in France and Germany by 2025. Several other sites throughout Europe are already under construction or being expanded. Lhyfe has been operating its first green 麻豆官网 site in France since the second half of 2021, and two other sites were opened in France in 2023.
