III. The scale-up of highly efficiency modular electromechanical compressor, SNAM, FVG, Italy

The validation of an innovative H2 compressor at TRL 6-8 will be implemented. The project will improve the system CapEx from 7’700 €/kW to 5’600 €/kW, especially for HRS applications, and will test the production plant of green hydrogen in Torviscosa (Ud), in order to improve the carbon footprint of an new developed plant that produce green hydrogen from electrolysis process (4MW) with electrical energy supplied from co-developed renewable plant at site and to enter a new market where green hydrogen is used for mobility application and in the chemical and hard to abate industry. Notably, the innovative H2 compressor will target the achievement of the 2030 CHJU Strategic Research targets of 3 kWh/kg_H2– for 5/900 bar compression, as well as a higher reliability by targeting a Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) of 40’000 hours.
