ITM Power has announced that it will launch a series of large scale refuelling station designs, including those intended for ships.

The series is set to be launched at Hydrogen + Fuel Cells North America, which is part of the SolarPower International Conference in Las Vegas.

"The large scale refuelling station designs are based around electrolyser configurations of up to 50MW in size with the capability to produce up to 20 tonnes of hydrogen per day," explained ITM Power.

The company says the move comes in response to industry demand for larger scale industrial installations for refuelling heavy logistics vehicles, including ships.

"These new refuelling station designs are being launched in response to a dramatic increase in the number of enquiries for refuelling heavy logistics vehicles at large scale as the viability of hydrogen power continues to gather scale and momentum across a growing number of industrial applications," said Dr. Graham Cooley, CEO of ITM Power.

"ITM Power is delighted to be in a prime position to support these important transportation sectors as they plan their transition to a greener vehicle fleet to reduce emissions. Air quality and fossil fuel emissions is now a high priority for governments worldwide."
