Lhyfe plans 2023 startup for 5MW Brittany project
The French developer will supply 2t/d of hydrogen to offtakers as part of the Great West Hydrogen Valley initiative
French green hydrogen developer Lhyfe has secured a permit to begin construction on a 5MW renewables project in Brittany, due to be commissioned in the second half of this year. Civil engineering is set to start at the end of February for the 6,800m² site in the Morbihan administrative region. The project is expected to produce up to 2t/d of hydrogen using electrolysis powered by a windfarm adjacent to the site. Lhyfe anticipates offtake primarily from local customers. As part of the Great West Hydrogen Valley initiative, the project will supply under a ten-year contract two refuelling stations operated by Hygo—founded by French firms Morbihan Energies and Engie Solutions in 2020—in the town
