Herkko Plit, CEO of P2X Solutions, emphasized: “Finland is in a great position to become a superpower in clean hydrogen and its derivative fuels. I want to thank our team and all our partners for this historical achievement. After this moment it is good to continue our pioneering mission to expand hydrogen economy in Finland with further production units.“
“Finland has everything it takes to become a clean energy superpower,” stated Alexander Stubb, President of the Republic of Finland, in the inauguration event, recognizing the project’s pioneering efforts: “Here in Harjavalta, you did not wait for change, you have made it happen.”
The launch of commercial hydrogen production is considered as important milestone for both Finland and Europe’s hydrogen economy. A key contribution to this success comes from Germany: The electrolyzer that produces green hydrogen on-site was supplied by Dresden-based electrolysis specialist Sunfire.
On-site, Sunfire CEO Nils Aldag congratulated the project team: “A Finnish goosebump moment for Europe – congratulations to P2X Solutions on launching Finland’s first commercial hydrogen production! We are proud to contribute to this historic milestone with our electrolyzers from Dresden. A true lighthouse project for green hydrogen – Made in Europe!”
