The HyGen project is led by three major experts: Fives, a global industrial engineering group, leader of the consortium, and two main research players, the CEA and the École des Mines de Saint-Etienne.
This research and development program aims to substantially increase the scale of the equipment necessary for the use of liquid hydrogen in favor of low-carbon mobility.
HyGen received funding of €3.4M from the French Government as part of the program France 2030 operated by ADEME and is thus fully part of the French national strategy to boost decarbonized hydrogen.
This project will contribute to the creation of 85 new jobs in the Grand-Est region where the Fives group has been established for over 120 years.
TECHNOLOGICAL LEADERSHIP IN HYDROGEN AT THE SERVICE OF LOW-CARBON MOBILITY
A technological leader in cryogenics for 65 years, Fives, with more than 50 references in hydrogen liquefaction, is the partner of the world’s largest players in industrial gases.
