Groupe E plans to build 1 MW hydrogen plant on lake Schiffenen
Swiss energy supplier Groupe E is partnering with German manufacturer H-Tec Systems to build a hydrogen electrolysis plant in western Switzerland with the aim of producing up to 300 tonnes of green hydrogen annually.
The project with a capacity of 1 MW will feature H-Tec's electrolyzer ME450/1400 which has a capacity to produce up to 450 kg of hydrogen daily. It will be powered with renewable energy through a 2 MW hydropower plant that will be built on Schiffenen in the canton of Fribourg.
