Andritz, an international technology group, has inaugurated a gigafactory in Erfurt, Germany, dedicated to producing electrolysers for the growing green hydrogen market in Europe. The facility has a production capacity of up to 1.1 GW per year, translating to approximately 160-200 electrolysers annually. Partnering with HydrogenPro, the plant has been manufacturing crucial components for green hydrogen production since March. The electrolysers from this factory are earmarked for Salzgitter AG's 100 MW hydrogen plant, aiding in low-carbon steel production. This move aligns with Andritz's vision of becoming a leading supplier of innovative and cost-effective solutions. The initiative has received positive feedback from Salzgitter Flachstahl's Chief Technical Officer, emphasizing the importance of the partnership in transitioning to low-CO2 steel production. Additionally, the article mentions Fortescue, an Australian mining company, opening an electrolyzer manufacturing plant in Queensland, further indicating the global momentum towards green hydrogen technologies.
