In Italy, Duferco Energia and Ansaldo Green Tech have signed a strategic agreement for the supply and commissioning of a 1 MW electrolyzer, designed to produce green hydrogen as part of the Hydrogen Valley project in Giammoro, in the province of Messina, in Italy. The electrolyzer, supplied by Ansaldo Green Tech, employs innovative AEM (Anion Exchange Membrane) technology, offering high efficiency and operational flexibility, said Ansaldo. Funded by the European Union’s “NextGenerationEU” program, the system will be assembled on a new production line currently under construction in Genova Campi. It will be capable of producing over 500 kg of green hydrogen per day, with optimized energy consumption and a purity level of 99.9%. The Giammoro Hydrogen Valley project includes the installation of a 4 MW photovoltaic system to power the electrolyzer, enabling the annual production of around 100 tons of green hydrogen. The hydrogen produced will primarily support the decarbonization of key industrial sectors, including steel, logistics, and mobility, the company added.
