Lhyfe Paris, France has announced plans to build its first green-hydrogen plant in northern France. The new production site under construction by the company is in Croixrault, in the Somme region of Hauts-de-France.
Work is in progress at the new hydrogen plant site in Croixrault, France Source: Lhyfe. Lhyfe is one of the pioneers of the green and renewable hydrogen sector in Europe. Founded in , the company inaugurated its first site in , and today already has four installed sites and several other sites under construction across Europe. Lhyfe produces its hydrogen locally through the electrolysis of water using renewable electricity.
Two tons of green hydrogen is equivalent to the amount a hydrogen truck needs to travel around 25, km. The Croixrault site will be able to distribute its green and renewable hydrogen throughout the Hauts-de-France region.
The region is widely recognized for its industrial activities, including chemicals, metallurgy, steel and glass. Green hydrogen will have a role to play in transforming the industrial landscape over the coming years, be it as a replacement for grey hydrogen which emits CO2 , or through new production processes or the creation of new industries.
At the request of the power grid operator, Lhyfe will be able to modulate its electricity use upwards or downwards, enabling it to stabilise the grid in the event of peaks in power usage. Sign In. Email or Username Password Forgot Password? Not a member? Sign up. Mobile Navigation.
