Siemens Energy has delivered the first nine of 12 PEM electrolysers to Air Liquide’s 200MW Normand’Hy hydrogen production project.
Located in Port-Jérôme, France, the project is expected to begin operations in 2026, producing up to 28,000 tonnes of green hydrogen per year.
The electrolysers were built at Siemens Energy and Air Liquide’s joint venture gigafactory in Berlin, one of Europe’s largest PEM stack production facilities with an annual capacity of up to 1GW, set to expand to 3GW by 2025.

“With partnerships like these, we are not just talking about a greener future, we are shaping it,” the electrolyser OEM stated on LinkedIn.
Since it was announced, Air Liquide has committed over €400m ($470m) in investment for Normand’Hy, which is part of the Important Projects of Common European Interest (IPCEI) scheme and supported by the French government.
The plant began construction in 2023 and is expected to be commissioned next year.
About 25% of the facility’s output is scheduled to support transport refuelling stations along the Seine Axis, fuelling up to 500 hydrogen-powered trucks. The rest is set to complement industrial users, including TotalEnergies.
