Ingeteam Commissions its Second Renewable Hydrogen Project in Spain

Ingeteam has completed the commissioning of its second hydrogen project in Spain. This is the first renewable hydrogen production plant in the Castile and León region. The plant, which is located in Garray, Soria, was developed by the company Somacyl in collaboration with Redexis, and features electrolysers from H2B2 Electrolysis Technologies. This is the second time that this client has relied on Ingeteam technology, following the successful SoHyCal project in California, USA.

The new production plant occupies a 3,000-square-metre plot and houses water storage tanks, as well as auxiliary facilities for control and monitoring, air conditioning, lighting and security. From the outset, the plant is expected to provide a hydrogen service to the Environmental Business Park (EBP). With a capacity of 2.5 MW, it will meet the EBP's energy and heat needs by producing 100% renewable hydrogen, avoiding the emission of up to 2,000 tonnes of CO₂ annually.

The project also contemplates the renewable hydrogen production plant to be powered directly by clean electricity and equipped with a 150-cubic-metre hydrogen storage system.

As the technology partner, Ingeteam is responsible for supplying its latest development: the new INGECON H2 E-Series rectifier. It powers the plant's electrolyser, supplying up to 6,000 amps with a single rectifier. This equipment has been designed, manufactured and tested at Ingeteam's production centres in Navarre, Spain, providing the project with a locally sourced solution. It has been delivered as a turnkey, ready-to-install solution, complete with a medium-voltage transformer. The agreement between the two companies also includes supplying the control system and commissioning this equipment.

Jorge Haya, director of Ingeteam's Hydrogen business, said: "Contributing our technology to projects close to where they are designed and manufactured allows us to monitor them exceptionally well and helps us continue developing robust equipment. This new contract further strengthens the trust that H2B2 has placed in Ingeteam as a technology partner for its projects. We are delighted to continue contributing to the decarbonisation of our society”. Ingeteam has reached a total order book of 550 MW, two of which have already been installed in Spain with very positive growth prospects.
