ITM Power announced the sale of a 1.4 MW electrolyzer to Sumitomo Corporation. 

This will be the first MW scale electrolyzer system ITM Power has deployed in Japan. The HGas2SP product will undergo modification to ensure hydrogen supply pressure is below 10 bar in order to comply with Japan’s High Pressure Gas Safety Act. ITM Power and Sumitomo are continuing their collaboration in the areas of business development, local compliance and after sale support to ensure a comprehensive green hydrogen offering in Japan.

The HGas2SP Plug&Play product includes two ITM Power high-efficient PEM electrolyzer stacks alongside all the necessary sub-systems required to produce high-purity, self-pressurized hydrogen gas. The HGAS2SP is rated at ~1.26MW start of life (including all sub-systems) and is able to produce ~2kg of hydrogen per hour. The fully integrated turn-key system is packaged in two separate ISO containers. The electrolyzer container includes the electrolyzer stacks, process equipment (including water clean-up), hydrogen purification and a PLC control system. The power supply container includes power distribution within the equipment and rectifiers for the electrolyser stacks.
