Electric Hydrogen (EH2) develops electrolyzer technologies that split water into hydrogen and oxygen, powered by renewable energy to produce green hydrogen. The company’s patented high-throughput electrolyzer technology as well as its manufacturing, and pilot project deployment are focused on heavy emitters such as the steel production, mining, and agriculture.

In May 2023, the company announced the location of its first factory in Devens, Massachusetts, which will have an annual manufacturing capacity of 1.2 GW, with electrolyzer production beginning in Q1 2024.

Key customers and partnerships

In September 2023, EH2 partnered with New Fortress Energy, an energy infrastructure company, to supply EH2’s 100 MW electrolyzer system to NFE’s green hydrogen project in Texas. First hydrogen production is expected in Q4 2024 with full commercial operation in 2025. The site and facility are scalable to 200 MW in the future.

In October 2021, Electric Hydrogen signed a three-year agreement with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to develop proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis systems.
