Hydrogenera and Stargate Hydrogen sign agreement for industrial hydrogen projects

Hydrogenera and Stargate Hydrogen have signed a framework cooperation agreement to collaborate on industrial hydrogen projects across Europe. More than a memorandum of understanding, the partnership is already moving into concrete cooperation.

The agreement brings together two European hydrogen technology companies with complementary strengths. Hydrogenera contributes its expertise in alkaline electrolyser system manufacturing, while Stargate Hydrogen provides its next-generation alkaline electrolyser stack technology.

The cooperation supports the next phase of industrial hydrogen adoption, where reliable technology, practical engineering, and long-term project execution are becoming increasingly important.

Under the agreement, the companies will explore selected opportunities related to alkaline electrolysis, hydrogen systems, and industrial project delivery. The collaboration is structured around project-based cooperation, while both companies continue to operate independently.

Complementary strengths

Hydrogenera covers the full chain from electrolyser technology and system design to balance-of-plant engineering, integration, manufacturing, project delivery, and industrial deployment. This expertise enables the company to transform hydrogen production technology into complete systems that operate reliably in demanding industrial environments.

Stargate Hydrogen is an Estonian hydrogen technology company developing advanced alkaline electrolyser stacks for industrial green hydrogen production. Its technology helps customers lower production costs while strengthening Europe's hydrogen supply chain through the elimination of precious metals.

The agreement enables both companies to combine their expertise where it creates the greatest value for customers.

"We are pleased to make our next-generation alkaline electrolyser stacks available to system integrators across Europe through partnerships like this. Our stack technology combines high performance with a design that eliminates the need for precious metals, helping to lower costs and strengthen Europe's hydrogen supply chain. Hydrogenera has an excellent track record in delivering complete hydrogen systems, and we look forward to working together on a range of projects where our technologies complement each other.“ Said Marko Virkebau, CEO of Stargate Hydrogen

Scope of the cooperation

The cooperation will focus on selected project opportunities where the capabilities of both companies are technically and commercially complementary.

Potential areas of collaboration include alkaline electrolyser stack solutions, system integration, and complete hydrogen system delivery. The companies may also pursue opportunities in industrial applications, demonstration projects, consortium activities, and other initiatives across the hydrogen sector.

"Industrial hydrogen projects require more than strong individual technologies. They require complete systems that are engineered, integrated, and delivered for real operating conditions. This cooperation with Stargate Hydrogen allows us to combine complementary expertise in alkaline electrolysis with Hydrogenera’s capabilities in system engineering, manufacturing, and project delivery. It strengthens the way both companies can address selected industrial hydrogen opportunities across Europe.” Said Dragomir Ivanov, CEO of Hydrogenera

The agreement establishes a framework for long-term cooperation. Individual projects, orders, and services will be agreed separately between the companies.
