Under a MOU signed between Siemens, Guofu Hydrogen and RCT GH Hydrogen, all the parties will work together to advance the hydrogen value chain. Siemens has been selected as the preferred supplier and technology partner for Guofu Hydrogen’s production of electrolyzers and green hydrogen.

Munich/Germany – The technology company Siemens, China-based Guofu Hydrogen, a leading supplier of integrated solutions for hydrogen energy, and RCT GH Hydrogen, a Germany-based supplier of hydrogen systems and services, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on advancing the hydrogen value chain. The partnership marks a significant step forward in the global expansion of green hydrogen technology as it focuses on the development and manufacture of electrolyzers and green hydrogen production.

The agreement establishes Siemens as the preferred supplier and technology partner across the entire value chain of Guofu Hydrogen's expansion plans. The partnership focuses on three key areas: developing and engineering Guofu’s electrolyzers and electrolyzer systems, equipping new electrolyzer manufacturing facilities starting in Germany, and developing, constructing, and operating new hydrogen production plants. RCT GH Hydrogen, as a technology partner, will lead the engineering, procurement, and construction of state-of-the-art hydrogen production facilities.

"This strategic partnership exemplifies Siemens' commitment to driving the industrialization of green hydrogen production," said Axel Lorenz, CEO of Process Automation at Siemens. "Our portfolio and domain expertise, combined with Guofu Hydrogen's vision and RCT GH Hydrogen’s proven engineering capabilities, will help establish new standards in electrolyzer manufacturing efficiency and scalability. Together, we're not just building factories – we're building the foundation for a sustainable hydrogen ecosystem that will play a crucial role in the global energy transition.”

“Partnering with Siemens allows us to leverage world-class automation and digital capabilities,” said Pinfang Wu, Board Chairman of Guofu Hydrogen. “This collaboration will significantly accelerate our expansion into global markets and strengthen our position as a leading provider of green hydrogen solutions. Together, we're creating a blueprint for the future of hydrogen production.”

As a key contributor, RCT GH Hydrogen will leverage its experience in hydrogen plant construction and systems integration to ensure that the electrolyzer manufacturing facilities meet the highest efficiency and safety standards. "This collaboration enables us to set new benchmarks in hydrogen infrastructure development, contributing significantly to the global decarbonization effort," said Prof. Dr. Peter Fath, CEO of RCT GH Hydrogen. “It also underscores RCT GH Hydrogen’s pivotal role in shaping a sustainable hydrogen economy through advanced technologies and innovative solutions.”

Siemens will be delivering products, solutions and services from across its Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, including industrial automation and instrumentation. The deal also includes electrification and building technology, industrial communication, and cybersecurity solutions. Siemens is also contributing its wide range of digital services and software for the design, engineering, simulation, optimization and standardization of the entire hydrogen value chain, from electrolyzer manufacturing to the operation of hydrogen plants.

Another key element of the collaboration is the development of a global hydrogen partner ecosystem that’s bringing together suppliers, technology providers, and end-users to accelerate innovation and standardization across the industry. This ecosystem will be supported by the Siemens Xcelerator, the company’s open digital business platform that enables seamless integration and collaboration throughout the value chain.
