Fortescue officially opens Gladstone electrolyzer facility
In Australia, Fortescue has officially opened its electrolyzer manufacturing facility in Gladstone, Queensland, Australia. The 15,000sqm advanced manufacturing facility will have capacity to produce over 2GW of Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzer stacks annually. Fortescue Energy CEO Mark Hutchinson said the Gladstone facility, which produces electrolyzers designed in-house by Fortescue teams in Australia and the United States, establishes the company as an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). “The process of splitting hydrogen and oxygen isn’t new – but the innovative ways the world is looking to use green hydrogen to decarbonize are, and that means demand for green hydrogen and for the electrolyzers to produce it is growing rapidly,” Hutchinson said.
