RWE has started commissioning a 100 MW electrolyzer in Lingen, with full capacity up to 300 MW expected in 2027, the German company confirmed to pv magazine, explaining that it is one of the largest renewable hydrogen plants in Europe. The Essen-based multinational will supply hydrogen to industries including TotalEnergies’ Leuna refinery under a 15-year offtake contract. The gas will be transported via pipelines.
Hydrogen Utopia International (HUI) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Hydrogen systemsa Saudi Arabia-based hydrogen infrastructure developer and operator of Shell-branded hydrogen fueling stations across the region. “Under the MoU, Hydrogen Systems will provide engineering, procurement and construction services and operational and management support for HUI’s planned facilities in Saudi Arabia to convert mixed waste and indestructible plastics into hydrogen,” said HUI in a press release. HUI, which focuses on converting non-recyclable mixed waste plastic, tires and hazardous waste into hydrogen, has exclusively licensed InEnTec’s plastic waste-to-hydrogen technology across the MENA region.
RCT Hydrogen said it is about to start production of electrolysis plants in Germany. “From the first quarter of 2026, electrolyzer stacks will be manufactured in Thuringia for the first megawatt-scale green hydrogen projects for industrial customers,” said the Konstanz-based company. RCT Hydrogen is a joint venture between RCT Holding and the Chinese Guofuhee. The company plans to produce up to 250 MW of pressurized alkaline electrolysers. “The ramp-up process has begun and the transition to local production in Germany marks an important step towards enabling cost-effective and reliable green hydrogen production in Europe.”
