Protium and ULEMCo have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to work together on building demand for green hydrogen fuel in transport applications.
While the collaboration reflects a shared nationwide ambition, the immediate focus will be on Wales and South England, the firms said, where Protium currently operates the Pioneer 1 hydrogen production facility and is set to launch a new site, Pioneer 2.
This agreement brings together two leading players in the UK’s growing hydrogen economy: Protium, a producer and supplier of renewable energy, and ULEMCo, a UK-based leading solutions provider for hydrogen combustion and fuel cell powertrain technologies for transport applications.
Their partnership aims to accelerate the use of zero-carbon hydrogen fuel for heavy-duty vehicles and non-road mobile machinery.
The collaboration supports Welsh Government’s ambitions to make South Wales a hub for low-carbon industry and innovation.
“This MOU marks a major step forward in building a clean, hydrogen-powered transport ecosystem for Wales and South England.
“Our green hydrogen will help decarbonise transport, support local industry, and contribute to net zero goals.”
Jordon Cullen, Commercial Manager at ULEMCo, commented:
“Hydrogen is essential for decarbonising sectors where electrification is not practical. We are excited to be collaborating with Protium to deliver achievable and affordable solutions, helping our customers decarbonise now.
“This partnership demonstrates our commitment to supporting a clean energy transition across the UK.”
