LONDON, UK: ITM Power, a leading manufacturer of large-scale electrolysers for green hydrogen production, has announced that it will open its new subsidiary, ITM Power Germany GmbH, in Linden, north of Frankfurt, in October this year.
The new facilities will have office space for more than 50 employees, and a warehouse with special equipment for storing the company’s state-of-the-art stacks in lightweight skids ready for quick deployment as aftersales spares. The facilities will also house repair and maintenance, as well as training of customers and partners.
The expansion will enable ITM Power to minimise response time to customers, maximise value from the use of its products, and drive advancements in core technology and product improvements, development of new business models around remote monitoring/operations and predictive maintenance, as well as commercial certainty around tightened system performance guarantees. These activities will be led by the company’s new global Data and Industrial IoT team which will be based in Linden.
ITM Power Germany will also be home of ITM’s global business development function, of various engineering disciplines, aftersales technicians, field engineers, procurement and other functions.
Dennis Schulz, CEO of ITM Power Germany, said: “This expansion in Germany will not only support responsive aftersales in the heart of the EU as our core market today, but will also be home for various business functions that are enablers for ITM’s accelerated growth. As we are scaling our operations, this is a major step in gearing up for an increasing degree of local content creation in the EU.”
