The production goal is 80,000 metric tonnes a year.
The letter of intent signed by the three companies is for Chemgas-owned push tugs to be powered by Teco 2030 fuel cells developed in partnership with AVL.
Norway-based Teco 2030, which is a subsidiary of Teco Holdings, is to list on the Merkur Market Norway.
The company says it is a "newly established innovative engineering and equipment development company with focus on a greener and cleaner environment".
