Lhyfe, Messer ink hydrogen agreement
In Germany, Lhyfe announced the signing of a major commercial, industrial and financial partnership with Messer.
Under the agreement, Messer is taking a 30% stake in four of Lhyfe’s hydrogen production sites in France and Germany. Moreover, the two partners will sign a 10-year contract on the supply of renewable hydrogen.
With that single transaction, Messer will not only become a long-term customer for Lhyfe, but also a reference industrial partner and an investor in the assets’ equity.
The 10-year supply agreement is backed by three of Lhyfe’s sites in France and one in Germany. Messer commits to a minimum volume starting in 2026, which is expected to gradually increase and reach several hundred tons per year. Beyond this commitment, Messer aims to purchase half of the output of the three French sites concerned.
Through this agreement, Messer secures long-term access to renewable hydrogen, including RFNBO-certified hydrogen, sourced from multiple production sites in France and Germany. By integrating this hydrogen into its multi-gas offering, Messer will be able to meet the decarbonization needs of both its existing industrial customers and new clients.
