Metacon granted $11.4 million from Klimatklivet for hydrogen production reference plant in Uppsala
In Sweden, Metacon has been granted up to $11.4 million in support from Klimatklivet to build a 10 MW electrolysis plant in Uppsala for local production of green hydrogen for use in industry and fossil-free and environmentally friendly transport.
The planned plant will have a capacity of 10 MW and an estimated annual production of approximately 1,480 tons of hydrogen at full-scale operation. The hydrogen is intended to be delivered to industrial users and hydrogen refueling stations in Central Sweden, where availability is currently limited and largely dependent on transport from other regions and countries.
Construction is planned to start in the second half of 2026, with commissioning expected during the first quarter of 2029.
“We are pleased that Klimatklivet wants to enable this initiative, which will show that green hydrogen can be produced efficiently and locally at larger scale. The project brings climate benefits, increased resilience and a higher degree of self-sufficiency in the region, and has clear relevance to market needs. For Metacon, the plant is also an important reference environment where customers and other decision-makers can evaluate a complete production module in practice – from technology and integration to operation and use,” said Christer Wikner, President and CEO of Metacon.
