We are delighted to have signed this Agreement with McPhy which will be a win-win partnership given L&T's strong presence across the entire value chain of manufacturing, EPC and services in the energy sector, and McPhy's technology and research leadership in this sector".
"McPhy wants to be a global leader in the manufacture of electrolyzers. Joining forces with a major partner like Larsen & Toubro to address new markets is a great opportunity for McPhy and evidence of the attractiveness of its technology." said Jean-Baptiste LUCAS, CEO of McPhy.
"We are looking forward to an exciting journey where this partnership of L&T and McPhy will play a key role in creating a sustainable energy infrastructure for the future. The Green Hydrogen industry is at a nascent stage with an immense potential, and through this partnership both organizations will harness their inherent strengths to establish cost leadership through local manufacturing and sourcing" said Mr. Derek M Shah, Sr. Vice President & Head, L&T Energy - Green Mfg. & Development.
