LHYFE ADDS ITS FIFTH GREEN HYDROGEN
PRODUCTION SITE IN FRANCE
Lhyfe continues to expand production of green and
renewable hydrogen, with its fifth French location
and first site in northern France. The new production
site under construction is in Croixrault, in the Somme
region of Hauts-de-France. Thanks to its strategic
location and Lhyfe's logistical capabilities, this
site will provide the many manufacturers in Hautsde-France
and mobility players in the region with
green and renewable hydrogen to decarbonize
their operations.
The project is part of a wider ambition initiative of
the Communauté de Communes Somme Sud-Ouest
that aims to boost local employment and provide
a favorable economic environment for companies
wishing to set up in a dynamic environment.
As an energy carrier, green hydrogen is as
powerful as it is clean and can replace the fossil
fuels currently used in heavy mobility and industry.
The green hydrogen produced locally by Lhyfe will
contribute to both the region's energy sovereignty
and its sustainable re-industrialization. With energy
and the energy transition at the heart of the concerns
of economic and industrial players, the site will
contribute to the region's industrial dynamics.
