Electric Hydrogen manufactures powerful electrolyzers that produce green hydrogen, a clean alternative to fossil fuels. Their electrolyzers work by using renewable electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen, making the process of producing green hydrogen more efficient and cost-effective. Unlike competitors, Electric Hydrogen's electrolyzers are designed in a way that allows them to produce hydrogen at a much larger scale (100MW) and at a lower cost, while also being quicker to build and commission. The company's goal is to help heavy-emission industries, such as fertilizer and steel production, transition to green hydrogen, thereby reducing their carbon emissions and supporting decarbonization efforts.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • EH2 secured $100M credit to support 100MW electrolyzer plant manufacturing and deployment.
  • Partnerships with companies like Uniper expand EH2's reach in large-scale projects.
  • The Inflation Reduction Act provides tax credits, reducing costs for EH2's projects.

What critics are saying

  • Competition from lower-cost Chinese manufacturers could impact EH2's market share.
  • Potential delays in scaling up the Devens gigafactory could affect EH2's demand fulfillment.
  • Fluctuations in renewable energy costs could impact EH2's green hydrogen cost-effectiveness.

What makes Electric Hydrogen unique

  • EH2's 100MW electrolyzer plants are significantly larger than competitors' typical 5MW units.
  • The leadership team has experience from Tesla and First Solar, enhancing EH2's credibility.
  • EH2's modular manufacturing approach reduces costs and enhances reliability over imported products.

Infinium Will Deploy Electric Hydrogen?S Electrolyser Plant At Large-Scale Efuels Facility In Texas

Monday, 19 May 2025American manufacturer of high-power electrolyser plants Electric Hydrogen has announced that Infinium , a leading producer of commercial eFuels, has selected Electric Hydrogen’s 100 megawatt (MW) HYPRPlant for its large-scale eFuels facility in Texas, Project Roadrunner.Electric Hydrogen’s HYPRPlant is a complete solution that lowers hydrogen total installed project cost by up to 60 percent relative to other electrolyser solutions. The company manufactures HYPRPlants in the United States: its proprietary electrochemical stacks are built in Electric Hydrogen’s Massachusetts gigafactory while the chemical process modules are manufactured in Texas, drawing on strong local expertise from the oil and gas industry. Electric Hydrogen’s innovative technology and modular manufacturing approach make the HYPRplant less expensive and more reliable than imported Chinese product, enhancing American energy technology leadership and competitiveness.“We are very pleased to be working with Electric Hydrogen and have been impressed with the HYPRplant design and commercial package” said Robert Schuetzle, CEO of Infinium. “Low-cost renewable hydrogen is a critical component to eFuel production, and the industry needs the kind of innovation and thoughtful execution we have seen from Electric Hydrogen.”Once production begins, Project Roadrunner - expected to be the largest eFuels production facility in the world - will produce sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF), eDiesel and eNaphtha from CO2, power and water for the aviation, heavy-duty trucking, plastics and maritime sectors. The project will bolster American technological advances and bring skilled jobs and economic growth to West Texas. Many of those workers are expected to bring skills and expertise they developed in the oil and gas sector
