Lhyfe, one of the world’s pioneers in green and renewable hydrogen production, has been selected by Epinal Urban Community to create a green hydrogen fuel chain due in late 2027. Lhyfe aims to build a site producing green and renewable hydrogen for otherwise-difficult-to-decarbonise uses in the transport sector and industry.
Lhyfe produces its green and renewable hydrogen through the electrolysis of water at production units powered by renewable energy.
The company’s first site (Lhyfe Pays de la Loire) has already been in operation since the second half of 2021, and five other sites – in France, Germany and Sweden – are currently under construction.
In parallel, Lhyfe is working on offshore hydrogen production projects – its Sealhyfe pilot system achieved a world first, in June 2023, when it began producing hydrogen at sea, off Le Croisic, in Loire-Atlantique.
Lhyfe aims to build and run a large-scale hydrogen production site, with installed capacity of several megawatts. It will supply hydrogen for local uses in the Epinal area, as well as for transregional and cross-border uses.
This green and renewable hydrogen production site will allow the creation of a cutting-edge industrial cluster in the Vosges area.
The project’s implementation is subject to the granting of operating authorizations and construction permits, as well as to financial investment decisions.
