Eiffage Group subsidiary Eiffage Énergie Systèmes – Clemessy has won the turnkey design-build contract for a multimodal hydrogen production and distribution site that will be operated by Hynamics (hydrogen subsidiary of the EDF group) in Danjoutin in southern Belfort (France).
The project will be constructed at the site known as H2 Nord Franche-Comté which is in close proximity to the bus depot and A36 motorway link. Powered by 100% renewable electricity, the station will produce hydrogen using a 1 MW electrolyzer and will incorporate two Hi-Flow distribution terminals that can refuel all seven buses in one hour, plus a third terminal designed to refill mobile storage equipment (trailer tubes and cylinder racks).
Eiffage Énergie Systèmes – Clemessy will be responsible for engineering (including electrical engineering), fluids, and site protection. Eiffage Route, as part of the consortium, will handle earthworks, civil engineering, and external works.
Commissioning should take place after 15 months of work, at the end of the first quarter of 2023.
