The group signed a contract with ICSI Energy Ramnicu Valcea, specialized in hydrogen-based energy technology implementation and development in Romania.
Pehart plans to install a photovoltaic park, an electrolyser that should use the energy generated by the park for green hydrogen production, store the manufactured hydrogen and mix it with natural gas for use in a co-generation station.
“Pehart has long sought to cut carbon emissions by using environment friendly technologies. (…) We are confident hydrogen-based energy technologies are the future and not just for industry, but for everybody,” stated Gabriel Stanciu, general manager of Pehart grup.
The company annually produces 100,000 tons of tissue paper in its two plants of Petresti-Sebes, Alba county, and Dej, Cluj county. 70% of production is sold in Romania.
The company has a 185-year record on the Romanian market.
