Enapter AG has received further orders for its megawatt-class electrolyzer, the anion exchange membrane (AEM) Nexus 1000. Thanks to their multicore technology, these AEM electrolyzers are particularly suitable for the highly efficient production of green H₂ from renewable energy sources on an industrial scale. As they do not use the rare and costly metal iridium, customers can reliably plan and future-proof their further expansion plans.

Enapter will supply 3 AEM Nexus multicore-class units, each with 1 MW, to the logistics company CFFT SpA. Among other things, the company operates a harbor near Rome. There, the Enapter electrolyzers will be used in a H₂ refueling system and operated with sustainably generated electricity. The order from CFFT is the largest single order from Europe in Enapter’s history to date.

A further Italian company, F.i.l.m.s SpA, – has also ordered a 1-MW AEM Nexus 1000 electrolyzer. The metalworking company from the OMCD Group specializes in hard metal parts and uses conventional H₂ in its production processes, which was previously delivered to the company. With the Enapter electrolyzer, the company will be able to produce green H₂ from renewable energy on site and feed it directly into its gas mix for the furnaces. F.i.l.m.s’ medium-term goal is to gradually replace climate-damaging natural gas used elsewhere in its processes and switch to green H₂ as much as possible.

The two contracts concluded in Italy have an order volume in the upper seven-figure euro range. Jürgen Laakmann, CEO of Enapter said, “More and more companies are focusing on their own energy production from wind and sun. Customers are increasingly opting for scalable, iridium-free electrolyzers to ensure that they can plan for further expansion. With our iridium-free AEM technology, we can offer the flexibility required for operation and expansion with renewable energies. Our success in the Italian market shows that we are ideally positioned to support industrial companies in providing important impetus for the energy transition.”
