NRM will have exclusivity to deploy ITM Power plant in their home state of Hessen in Germany and will be the Company's preferred partner for projects in other German states and internationally. The MOU covers both the direct injection of hydrogen gas into mains gas grids and methanation projects.\n \nITM Power has deployed its PEM Electrolysis Power-to-Gas (P2G) plant at the Mainova Aktiengesellschaft site in Schielestrasse, Frankfurt am Main where the compliant gas mixing and grid injection infrastructure designed and built by NRM is already in place. The plant, which was jointly commissioned by 13 partners within the Thüga Group to investigate P2G-Technology, is now on-site and is undergoing an extensive acceptance, compliance and commissioning phase before live commissioning in December. \n \nThis plant is part of the Thüga Group's P2G project as previously reported. Both ITM and NRM are building this plant with the Thüga project consortium, of which ITM and NRM's parent Mainova are both partners.
