Agreement marks another important milestone in continued commercialization of HEVO-Chain system, advancing hydrogen mobility in northern Portugal

SABUGO, Portugal, Nov. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fusion Fuel (NASDAQ: HTOO) announced today that it has entered into a sales contract with a Portuguese energy company for a 1.25 MW HEVO-Chain Series NC electrolyzer. The system will employ Fusion Fuel’s plug-and-play HEVO™ technology, which uses modular building blocks to deliver green hydrogen solutions tailored to individual customer needs.

The integrated electrolyzer and hydrogen refuelling project was awarded funding by the European Commission through Component 14 of Portugal’s Recovery and Resilience Plan. The facility, which aims to produce, store, and distribute green hydrogen for the light and heavy transport sector in the north of Portugal, is expected to be fully installed and operational before the end of 2024.

We continue to see significant interest in our HEVO-Chain system for projects of all sizes.”

Pedro Caçorino Dias, Fusion Fuel´s Head of Portugal, noted, “Our ability to design an entire hydrogen plant, in addition to our modular electrolyzer approach, allowed us to execute this agreement in record time, a testament to our cutting-edge technology and our capability to deliver. It also speaks volumes about our client's steadfast commitment to accelerating the energy transition and reducing carbon emissions in Portugal’s transport sector. With this project, we continue to extend our footprint in the hydrogen mobility space, which we believe will be a source of differentiation for us as the market develops over the coming years.”
