Wolong Enapter JV starts series production of AEM megawatt electrolyzer

Wolong Enapter Hydrogen Technologies Ltd., a Joint Venture of Enapter AG and Wolong Group from China, have presented the first megawatt-class AEM electrolyzer produced in Shangyu, China. The completion and presentation of this 1-MW electrolyzer in Shangyu marks the beginning of the Joint Venture’s series production of AEM Nexus electrolyzer for the Chinese market.

Wolong Enapter Hydrogen Technologies Ltd. has already signed several memoranda of understanding (MoU) for the AEM Nexus with companies in China – among them, Concord New Energy, which wants to start a pilot project in 2025, as well as the largest Chinese steel manufacturer, Baowu Steel. Baowu Steel plans to further expand its existing green H2 production to drive forward the decarbonization of its processes even more strongly.

Dr. Jürgen Laakmann, CEO Enapter AG said, “The start of series production of AEM megawatt electrolyzer for the Chinese market is an important step in our expansion strategy. Thanks to our Joint Venture with Wolong, we are ideally positioned to capitalize on the growing market potential in the Chinese green H2 sector and continue to drive Enapter’s dynamic growth.”

Pang Xinyuan, Chairman of Wolong Electric Group said, “With Enapter, we have a strong partner at our side to further advance the establishment of green H2 in China. In a very short space of time, we were able to jointly develop this megawatt electrolyzer and convince the first potential customers in China of Enapter’s AEM technology. We look forward to further cooperation and already have a well-filled pipeline.”
