Clean Power Hydrogen, the Doncaster-based manufacturer of the unique Membrane-Free Electrolyser, is pleased to announce that it has won an order from Octopus Hydrogen, for the supply of a 1MW electrolyser.

The order is a significant milestone for Clean Power Hydrogen (CPH2) as it is the first 1MW electrolyser the company has supplied to a UK based hydrogen production and supply company, further supporting the high-level of interest in the company’s patented Membrane-Free Electrolyser™

We are establishing a decentralised production of green hydrogen via electrolysis, co-located with renewable energy generation, with localised distribution.  CPH2’s simple design and unique approach to fuel cell grade hydrogen production, it’s UK based manufacturing and fantastic culture and team are a great partner for us on this journey.”   

Jon Duffy, CEO of CPH2, said: “We are excited to be working with such an innovative and environmentally aware energy supplier, as Octopus Hydrogen. This order marries perfectly with our sustainability ethos to manufacture carbon-friendly technology.”

The 1MW Membrane-Free Electrolyser™ is due for delivery to Octopus Hydrogen’s site late 2021. Producing up to 451kg/H2 per day the system incorporates cryogenic separation technology to generate hydrogen with a purity of up to 99.999% and oxygen of up to 99.5% which is suitable for medical use.
