The Bouin site, which is the first production site for renewable and ecological hydrogen, produces molecules of hydrogen since September 2021. The site is unique in that it is interconnected with the Vendée Energie wind farm a few hundreds of metres away, and thus ensures truly renewable hydrogen. We like to describe it as “ecological hydrogen”. The site supplies the first Lhyfe hydrogen clients who are based nearby.
This scalable production facility has begun by producing 300 kilograms of hydrogen a day and can be ramped up to one tonne a day to meet the growing needs expected in the industry and transportation sector.
