Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group, part of Nikkiso has acquired full ownership of its facility in Murrieta, California, and 16.4 acres of land to expand its manufacturing and testing operations.

Currently the group builds and tests cryogenic vaporizers, heat exchangers, process skids, air separation units and liquefaction products—the expansion will add four H₂ testing stations on site to support the group’s growing H₂ business.

“The H₂ economy is accelerating as the energy transition progresses, and Nikkiso has a large role to play,” said Peter Wagner, CEO, Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases. “This facility expansion allows us to scale operations and better support global demand for our state-of-the-art cryogenic products and technologies.”

Construction will begin in the first half of 2024.
