Uniper has selected ITM Power to supply 120MW of electrolysers for its UK green hydrogen plant, which was shortlisted for government funding.

The German energy major intends to use six of ITM’s 20MW Poseidon process modules at its Humber H2ub project at its existing Killingholme site, with plans to supply hydrogen to Phillips 66’s Humber refinery.

H2 View understands that this is the first time that ITM has stated that its Poseidon systems will be used in a specific project.

The standardised skid-mounted electrolyser units, based on its 2MW stacks, are aimed at larger-scale projects.

Uniper signed a collaboration agreement with Phillips 66 in 2024 to explore supplying green hydrogen to the US petroleum firm’s Humber refinery to replace some refinery fuel gas in fired heaters.
