FEED contract for Uniper's 120MW green hydrogen project

ITM Power is pleased to announce that we have signed the Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) contract for Uniper's 120MW Humber H2ub® project, which was recently shortlisted as part of the UK's Hydrogen Allocation Round 2 (HAR2). This milestone follows ITM's selection as the electrolyser supplier for the project, announced on 8 May 2025.

ITM will deploy six 20MW POSEIDON core electrolysis process modules into the project, which remains subject to Final Investment Decision (FID) and is targeted to be operational in 2029.

Dennis Schulz, CEO, said, "The Humber project represents exactly the kind of scale, ambition and strategic alignment the green hydrogen sector needs right now. Signing the FEED contract is not just another milestone - it is a signal that industrial decarbonisation in the UK is moving from concept to reality. ITM's technology and expertise are at the forefront of that transformation. We look forward to working with Uniper to progress this landmark project through FID."
