Metacon broadcasts permitted CE marking of HHG 50 for the manufacturing of inexperienced hydrogen from biogas.
Metacon, by its subsidiary Helbio, has obtained permitted CE marking of its hydrogen generator HHG 50 for the manufacturing of ca 50 Nm3 of hydrogen per hour. The CE mark is a vital step within the growth of our core know-how for our compact reformers. Any such unit is meant for Metacon’s demonstration plant in Kempten in southern Germany, the place preparations for the upcoming set up are ongoing.
The CE mark proves and ensures that our know-how and design adjust to EU product security necessities. Which means with the appliance of the corresponding design and execution, we will receive corresponding certifications for our different product households which are underneath growth.
The truth that our merchandise adjust to the EU’s requirements and rules for product security is a prerequisite for with the ability to put the merchandise available on the market and permits us to promote them all through the EU. The CE marking implies that we now have obtained a Certificates of Conformity for the gasoline processor from an EU-accredited certification physique, on this case, EuroCert, based on the relevant EU directives and requirements for the components that require particular notification.
The subsequent step is to arrange corresponding certifications for our bigger industrial hydrogen generator HHG 250, which is able to have the ability to produce near 300 Nm3 of fossil-free hydrogen per hour (about 25 kg), equal to about 200 tons of hydrogen per 12 months in steady operation. Or for instance with a sensible instance: sufficient hydrogen for greater than 1,500 hydrogen vehicles to drive greater than 15,000 km every in a 12 months.
The manufacturing of the primary full HHG 250 can start as quickly as our new manufacturing facility in Patras, Greece, is totally accomplished. At a refueling worth of EUR 10/kg, an HHG 250 can herald roughly EUR 2 million per 12 months to the proprietor of an HHG-coupled filling station. The deal for a biogas plant that invests in upgrading the biogas to hydrogen on this method, can thus have a really brief payback interval and contribute to the biogas plant having a renewed and improved monetary state of affairs.
Christer Wikner, CEO & President, Metacon mentioned:
That is excellent news that when once more reveals that our proprietary hydrogen mills meet the excessive product security necessities set out within the EU’s varied directives and rules.
“Our HHG sequence shares primary know-how with our Mixed Warmth and Energy know-how, however lacks gear for electrical energy era (FC), inverters, management know-how for warmth manufacturing and different issues that should slot in a compact type issue reminiscent of within the H2PS-5. Whereas there definitely are fascinating niches for us in CHP, we see considerably better alternatives for lowered enterprise dangers and on the identical time bigger and extra worthwhile enterprise in hydrogen manufacturing market”.

About Metacon AB (publ)
Metacon AB (publ) develops and manufactures vitality programs for the manufacturing of fossil-free “inexperienced” hydrogen. Our imaginative and prescient is that “Metacon will turn out to be one of many main firms in Europe in options for native manufacturing of fossil-free hydrogen for trade and the transport sector”.
The merchandise within the Reforming enterprise space are based mostly, amongst different issues, on a patented know-how that generates hydrogen by so-called catalytic steam reforming of biogas or different hydrocarbons. The event of Metacon’s reforming merchandise takes place throughout the wholly owned subsidiary Helbio S.A in Patras, Greece.
The enterprise is targeted on catalytic course of chemistry and superior reformers for extremely environment friendly hydrogen manufacturing.
Metacon additionally affords full electrolysis vegetation and built-in refueling stations for inexperienced hydrogen, a big and globally rising space for small- and large-scale manufacturing of inexperienced hydrogen. Electrolysis is a technique of driving a chemical response to separate water by including electrical energy.
If the electrical energy used is non-fossil, the hydrogen may even be fossil-free and climate-neutral. Inexperienced hydrogen can be utilized in sectors reminiscent of transport, primary trade and the actual property sector, with a greater surroundings and local weather in consequence. www.metacon.com
