German system integrator VINCI Energies Deutschland Industry & Infrastructure GmbH and Enapter GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of Enapter, have signed a cooperation agreement.
French-based VINCI Energies, a subsidiary of the listed French concession and construction group, intends to distribute and deploy Enapter’s AEM Multicore (Anion Exchange Membrane Multicore) large-scale hydrogen plants in Germany. A minimum of five years is required for the partnership. At this time, no agreement has been reached on exclusivity or purchase guarantees.
The collaboration’s overarching goal is to build hydrogen plants that meet industry standards for performance and cost. Enapter will supply AEM Multicore electrolysers capable of generating approximately 450 kilogrammes of green hydrogen per day as a result of this collaboration. For customers in Germany, VINCI Energies plans to integrate the AEM Multicore into green hydrogen production facilities with the necessary infrastructure and ancillary equipment, and operate these on-site where necessary. ” Vendors of industrial process solutions Actemium and Omexom, both of which are part of the VINCI Energies family of companies, will carry out the actual implementation on-site with customers. In addition, the VINCI group plans to use the AEM Multicore, as well. Before deciding to work together, Enapter and VINCI Energies got to know one another through Startup Connect. As a result of VINCI Energies’ program, innovative companies and experts from across the group can collaborate more quickly to build long-term business relationships.
“We are very pleased to be working with such a renowned and experienced partner in plant engineering for industry and energy infrastructure as VINCI Energies in Germany. Together, we will advance the energy transition on an industrial scale. With the AEM Multicore, we have the perfect product to meet specific customer requirements for the production of green hydrogen. We believe their customers will appreciate this flexibility,” says Sebastian-Justus Schmidt, Founder and CEO of Enapter
“We see very great potential in the production and use of green hydrogen. Enapter is the ideal partner for us to support our expansion strategy in the hydrogen sector. The modular structure and the high flexibility, coupled with the high degree of standardisation, have more than convinced us. This allows us to optimally serve the specific requirement profiles of our customers and the extremely dynamic growth of the market for regenerative hydrogen solutions,” says Frank Westphal, CEO of VINCI Energies Deutschland Industry & Infrastructure GmbH, of the new cooperation.
