Howden wins hydrogen compressor contract02 February 2023

?Howden diaphragm compressors Atura Power PIC CAP: The facility will produce green hydrogen in Niagara Falls

​Howden is to provide five hydrogen diaphragm compressors that will produce 20MW of green hydrogen in Niagara Falls at Atura Power’s centre in Ontario, Canada.

The energy will be used to power electrolyzers to produce hydrogen. Howden’s hydrogen compressors will take hydrogen from the electrolyzers and compress for on-site, short-term mobile storage. This project will provide industrial consumers with low-carbon hydrogen for immediate consumption and will also be transported and blended into the fuel stream at Atura Power’s Halton Hills Generating Station, creating cleaner electricity for Ontario.

Salah Mahdy, global director of renewable hydrogen at Howden, said: “This contract and approach by working closely with Atura to identify the best compression solution and system design for their needs represents a great example of how we are working with customers to support the energy transition and advance a more sustainable world. Our solution in this project focuses on safe, cost-effective, and efficient hydrogen compression followed by on-going support to ensure plant efficiency and reliability.”
