Nel ASA receives another 10 MW purchase order from Samsung C&T

In Norway, Nel Hydrogen Electrolyser, a subsidiary of Nel ASA, has signed a new contract for 10 MW of alkaline electrolyser equipment with Samsung C&T Corporation Engineering & Construction Group for its first pilot for nuclear connected (pink) hydrogen production plant.

The first contract with Samsung C&T signed earlier this year was for an off-grid project based on solar power, while the Korean company will now set up a demonstration plant to validate the commercial model for nuclear pink hydrogen. The aim is to produce hydrogen from excess nuclear power generation, allowing to utilize energy that is otherwise wasted in periods of oversupply, increasing overall energy efficiency

“Samsung C&T has ambitious plans in the hydrogen industry, and we are pleased that we, for the second time now, have been selected to deliver the electrolyser for this exciting and meaningful project,” said Håkon Volldal, President and CEO of Nel ASA.
