Industrie De Nora Launches Italy's Largest Electrolyzer Plant for Green Hydrogen Production
Key Ideas
  • Industrie De Nora is constructing Italy's largest electrolyzer plant to meet the rising demand for green hydrogen, essential for Europe's climate goals.
  • The plant will have an annual capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW) with orders already in place, supported by public subsidies of up to 63 million euros.
  • Partnerships with key players like Acwa Power and Air Products and international collaborations are propelling growth in the green hydrogen sector.
  • The project signals a significant advancement in green hydrogen production, aligning with the EU's decarbonization strategy and fostering innovation for a sustainable future.
Industrie De Nora, a prominent electrolyzer manufacturer, has initiated the construction of Italy's largest electrolyzer plant in Cernusco sul Naviglio to cater to the increasing demand for green hydrogen driven by the EU's climate objectives. Green hydrogen, generated through water electrolysis, is pivotal in replacing fossil fuels and storing excess renewable energy. The EU aims to produce and import 20 million tonnes of green hydrogen by 2030 to mitigate carbon emissions. The CEO announced orders for electrolyzers capable of producing 2 GW of hydrogen, equating to the plant's annual capacity, slated for completion by late 2025 or early 2026, with substantial public subsidies. The partnership with Acwa Power and Air Products and the SoutH2 pipeline project connecting Italy, Germany, and Austria signify a significant push towards sustainable hydrogen solutions and infrastructure. This development not only meets energy needs but also aligns with the EU's decarbonization strategy, fostering innovation and supporting the energy transition for a sustainable future.
