ABB, Hynamics collaborate to lower hydrogen production cost

In Switzerland, ABB said it has signed an agreement with Hynamics, the hydrogen subsidiary of EDF group, to integrate the ABB Ability OPTIMAX energy management system to optimize hydrogen production costs. The system will be deployed at Hynamics’ “AuxHYGen” low carbon hydrogen production and distribution station in Auxerre, France “With complementary areas of expertise, the cooperation between ABB and Hynamics will enable us to accelerate the deployment of hydrogen projects on an industrial scale,” said Christelle Rouillé, General Manager of Hynamics. “The integration of ABB’s world-class power management system is a necessary step to improve the performance of the water electrolysis process and thus optimize the cost of hydrogen production.” The deal also stipulates the potential deployment on further Hynamics production sites in 2023.
