HIF Global, the world's leading eFuels company, and Siemens Energy reached an agreement which would allow Siemens Energy to expand its electrolyzer manufacturing capacity beyond its previously announced plans.
This agreement will assist HIF Global in obtaining sufficient capacity for the HIF Matagorda eFuels Facility, located in Matagorda County, Texas. The HIF Matagorda eFuels Facility will be the first world-scale eFuels facility. HIF and Siemens Energy are engaged in front-end engineering and design for 1.8 gigawatts of Silyzer 300 polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzers that will use renewable energy to separate hydrogen from water, resulting in approximately 300,000 metric tonnes of hydrogen per year.
The green hydrogen will be used, together with recycled carbon dioxide, to produce carbon-neutral eFuels, which are chemically equivalent to fuels used today and can be dropped-in to existing engines without any modifications required. The green hydrogen and
