About HDF Energy

Founded in 2012, HDF Energy is a leading global player in the hydrogen sector, with two main activities.

As an industrial company, HDF designs and manufactures high-power fuel cells at its factory in Blanquefort, near Bordeaux. These cutting-edge technologies produce electricity from hydrogen, with the aim of decarbonising power generation for public electricity grids, as well as heavy maritime and rail mobility.

As a hydrogen infrastructure architect, HDF Energy designs and develops large turnkey hydrogen infrastructures to produce low-carbon hydrogen and clean electricity. Through dedicated project companies, we also finance, build and operate these facilities.

Our flagship model is the Renewstable®, a multi-megawatt power plant delivering non-intermittent renewable, stable and baseload power, 24/7, by seamlessly integrating intermittent renewable energy sources (solar or wind) with substantial on-site energy storage in the form of green hydrogen. These plants are being developed in more than twenty countries around the world.

Backed by a team of over 150 hydrogen experts boasting more than a decade of operational experience across the value chain, HDF Energy is currently developing a portfolio of advanced projects valued at over €3 billion.

Headquartered in France, HDF Energy has regional offices in Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa and the Asia-Pacific region with 35+ nationalities among its staff. Since 2021, the Group has been listed on the Euronext Paris stock market.
