Feuchtwangen has marked the official start of its electrolyzer project in the West II industrial area, aiming to enhance climate-friendly energy supply. The initiative, backed by a €5 million grant from the Bavarian State Ministry of Economic Affairs, is the first green hydrogen production facility in Middle Franconia and aligns with Bavaria's hydrogen strategy.

The plant, with a capacity of five megawatts, is projected to produce up to 650 tons of green hydrogen annually, with operations expected to commence by the end of 2026. H2 Hub nahKRAFT GmbH, a partnership between nahKRAFT GmbH and IFSEC Green H2 AG, is overseeing the project. The green hydrogen will primarily serve the mobility sector, exemplified by the presentation of a hydrogen-powered wheel loader at the groundbreaking ceremony.
