Metacon has been selected as a supplier in a H₂ project for a 7.5-MW electrolysis plant for Elektra Power SRL, Romania (Elektra). The transaction requires that the customary project contract is drawn up and signed, a work that will soon start together with the customer. The contract value is approximately €7.1 MM (SEK 77.8 MM).

The plant will utilize pressurized alkaline electrolyzers supplied in collaboration with Metacon's partner PERIC H₂ Technology based in Handan, China, along with certain auxiliary equipment.

“I am very pleased to announce this first contract award for Metacon on the Romanian market. This is another proof of trust in Metacon’s ability to provide proven and cost-effective H₂ production solutions for customers in different places and with varying requirements. I’m very much looking forward to collaborating with an energy pioneer like the Elektra Group in this project," said Christer Wikner, President & CEO of Metacon.

"We continue to see strong future potential for green H₂ and H₂ applications in Romania as part of the future energy and fuel mix. We are pleased to team up with Metacon in this green H₂ project,” commented Dan Oproescu, Managing Director of Elektra.
