TECO 2030 inks deal with Everfuel for green hydrogen delivery

TECO 2030 signed a strategic cooperation agreement with European hydrogen supplier Everfuel to deliver green hydrogen for its fuel cells and fuel cell generators.

As part of the agreement, the companies will develop solutions enabling Everfuel to distribute and deliver green hydrogen to sites where TECO 2030’s hydrogen fuel cell power generators are located, or to ships, vehicles or equipment with TECO 2030’s fuel cell technology installed.

Focus on off-grid construction projects

This cooperation will focus particularly on exploring the possibility of providing decentralized power supply for off-grid construction projects in areas where Everfuel has available hydrogen capacity and infrastructure.

This will enable construction sites with no available grid connection to lower their climate footprint and reduce emissions by switching from diesel generators to zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell generators.

Green hydrogen is produced with renewable energy such as electricity from hydropower plants, wind turbines and solar panels.

'Will open a huge market for hydrogen'

'We are very excited to develop distribution and delivery solutions for users of the robust and high-capacity fuel cells delivered by TECO 2030. We believe it will open a huge market for hydrogen and introduce zero-emission solutions in hard-to-decarbonise segments,' Everfuel CEO Jacob Krogsgaard said.

TECO 2030 is developing hydrogen fuel cells that are specifically designed for use on ships or other heavy-duty applications. Hydrogen fuel cells convert hydrogen into electricity while emitting nothing but water vapor and warm air.
