Electric Hydrogen, a North American manufacturer of large-scale, cost-competitive electrolyzers, has chosen the Spanish company Ingeteam for the development and implementation of current and future projects in the U.S. and Europe.

Ingeteam’s rectifiers, globally recognized and used in green hydrogen production, are already operational at Electric Hydrogen’s plants in San José, California, and Devens, Massachusetts. Going forward, they will also be integrated into the company’s projects in Europe, including the development and commissioning of 100 megawatt (MW) electrolysis plants.

Electric Hydrogen has an expanding customer portfolio in Europe and is committed to working with suppliers who align with and support the European Union’s goals for decarbonization, industrial competitiveness, and technological innovation. This collaboration ensures greater competitiveness in the growing renewable hydrogen sector.

Raffi Garabedian, CEO and co-founder of Electric Hydrogen, explains: “Ingeteam’s power conversion technology allows us to challenge the current limits in terms of efficiency and cost.

Thanks to this collaboration, we have conducted extensive interoperability testing that ensures our systems work optimally together. This allows us to eliminate potential failures at a critical point—the interface between the electrolysis process and the power system of our 100 MW plant. Moreover, we can leverage Ingeteam’s extensive experience and large-scale supply chains.”

Power supply systems, which convert alternating current to direct current, are a significant part of the total costs of a green hydrogen plant, so any improvement or innovation in these systems can lead to a substantial cost reduction.

Both companies have jointly optimized the components of their respective equipment to minimize integration risks in Electric Hydrogen’s 100 MW plant. Thanks to this collaboration and other product innovations, Electric Hydrogen has reduced total project costs by up to 60% compared to other industry benchmarks.

“This collaboration with Electric Hydrogen allows us to apply more than 50 years of experience in power electronics to one of the most promising industries. Our combined strength will help customers around the world optimize costs and increase their energy independence. Our technology is specifically designed for industrial use, and we are proud to support Electric Hydrogen in its goal of reducing the cost of renewable hydrogen for customers in Spain, Europe, and worldwide,” says Adolfo Rebollo, CEO of Ingeteam.
