FABRUM ENTERS A MANUFACTURING AGREEMENT WITH CPH2 TO ACCELERATE DELIVERY OF MEMBRANE-FREE ELECTROLYSERS
New Zealand based Fabrum Solutions Ltd, one of the world’s leading cryogenic systems manufacturers for gas separation and hydrogen liquefaction, is pleased to announce that it has entered a manufacturing agreement with CPH2, the UK-based green hydrogen technology and manufacturing company that has developed the IP-protected Membrane-Free Electrolyser (“MFE”).
The agreement, which will be effective for ten years allows Fabrum to build electrolysers in Christchurch, New Zealand. This will accelerate the MFE technology’s rollout across Australia, and New Zealand as the market for hydrogen grows rapidly. The agreement is CPH2’s first in the region.
The agreement strengthens the working and strategic relationship between the two companies possessing symbiotic, patented technologies which advance Membrane Free Electrolysers and cryogenic liquefaction.
CPH2 has already shipped the first MFE220 to Fabrum’s facilities in New Zealand.
In December 2022, it was announced that Fabrum and CPH2 had executed a development agreement for the technical development of CPH2’s MFE. Under the terms of this agreement, Fabrum has been working with CPH2 and its existing industry partner, Kenera Energy Solutions to provide engineering expertise in support of design reviews, systems documentation and safety cases.
CPH2 and Fabrum have also executed a deed of variation to an existing supply agreement to allow CPH2 to purchase DPWG Cryocoolers for embedding in its MFE products on an exclusive basis.
Christopher Boyle, Managing Director of Fabrum, commented:
“We see the CPH2 technology as a world beating, low-cost solution to the production of green hydrogen, which is why we are adding to our development agreement with CPH2 with a full-scale manufacturing agreement.
We are excited to be able to offer CPH2’s world leading MFE technology across New Zealand and Australia. We have been experiencing strong demand for hydrogen solutions across various industries in this part of the world. Our close partnership with CPH2 will enable the delivery of such solutions at a faster pace.”
Jon Duffy Chief, Executive Officer of CPH2, commented:
“I am delighted to extend our working relationship with Fabrum, the world leader in cryogenic systems and hydrogen liquefaction, through the manufacturing and licensing deal.
The collaboration between CPH2 and Fabrum will allow CPH2’s MFE technology to be used across Australia and New Zealand, where the green hydrogen sector is rapidly developing. We look forward to continuing working with the team at Fabrum in the future.”
