Hyundai Motor Company signs business agreement with global chemical company Ineos Group Aim to accelerate the realization of a hydrogen society by promoting expansion of hydrogen-related public and private sector projects
[The story of the case / Reporter Moon Hong-cherl] = Hyundai Motor Company will cooperate with the UK's global general chemical company Ineos Group (INEOS, hereinafter referred to as Ineos) to expand the global hydrogen ecosystem. The goal is to accelerate the realization of a hydrogen society by establishing an integrated hydrogen value chain from hydrogen production, supply and storage, to the development of hydrogen electric vehicles and the use of fuel cell systems, and by promoting the expansion of hydrogen-related public and private sector businesses.
On the 20th (Fri), Hyundai Motor Company, Albert Biermann, Head of Hyundai Motors R&D Headquarters (President), Kim Se-hoon, Head of Hyundai Motors Fuel Cell Division (Executive Vice President), Peter Williams, Ineos Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Duck Hailman (Dirk Heilmann) CEO of INEOS Automotive, Geir Tuft, CEO of INOVYN, etc. attended, and it was announced that a memorandum of understanding (MOU) was signed.
Headquartered in the UK, Ineos is a global comprehensive chemical company focusing on the production of petrochemicals, specialty chemicals and petroleum products. Currently, it produces 300,000 tons of hydrogen per year, and is starting a full-fledged start to lead the future hydrogen society by expanding its hydrogen-related business field.
Hyundai Motor Company and Ineos have been actively seeking a field of cooperation where synergy between the two companies can be exerted, with the intention of the need for an early implementation of a global hydrogen society, and on this day they signed an MOU.
First of all, through the MOU, the two companies plan to introduce a new hydrogen electric vehicle by mounting Hyundai Motor's vehicle fuel cell system on the SUV “Grenadier,” under development by Ineos Automotive.
Hyundai Motor's vehicle fuel cell system has been applied to a hydrogen electric vehicle'Nexo', a hydrogen electric truck'Exient', and a hydrogen electric bus'Electic', and the reliability and effectiveness of the system have been widely proven.
In addition, the two companies will actively cooperate in spreading the hydrogen economy in Europe by creating hydrogen-related business opportunities.
Europe is a representative region where the movement to lead the hydrogen economy is actively progressing, and the production of green hydrogen is drastically increased through the establishment of water electrolysis facilities in the European Union (EU), and hydrogen-related infrastructure such as storage, distribution, transportation, and charging. It has stated its goal to expand investment.
In line with this movement in Europe, the two companies will form a consultative body composed of key stakeholders immediately after the MOU, and work closely with the European Union, European governments and private companies to seek immediate business opportunities.
In this process, Ineos will be in charge of producing, supplying, and storing hydrogen, centering on its subsidiary Innobin, and Hyundai Motors supplying the fuel cell system.
The two companies plan to actively endeavor to expand the global hydrogen ecosystem in Europe and in the future by building a hydrogen value chain that covers hydrogen production, storage, transportation and utilization based on Ineos' chemical technology and Hyundai Motor's fuel cell system technology. to be.
Hyundai Motor Company expects that this cooperation with Ineos following Saudi Aramco in June 2019 will be a significant turning point in the future transition to a hydrogen society.
In addition, through this cooperation, the company plans to further solidify its leadership in the field of vehicle fuel cell system development and mass production, while making it a full-fledged opportunity for fuel cell system technology to be applied to more diverse fields.
Kim Se-hoon, head of the fuel cell division of Hyundai Motors (Executive Vice President), said, “It is highly suggestive that traditional chemical companies such as Ineos are seeking to enter the hydrogen ecosystem through the production of green hydrogen and the development of hydrogen electric vehicles.” We expect that Hyundai Motor's technology leading the fuel cell system will be added to our efforts to create the best synergy.”
Peter Williams, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Ineos, said, “This agreement will provide an opportunity for both Hyundai Motor Company and Ineos to expand their role in accelerating the hydrogen economy.” Through this, we will contribute to the spread of the global hydrogen ecosystem.”
Meanwhile, Hyundai Motor Group announced that it plans to expand its hydrogen fuel cell system production capacity to 700,000 units by 2030 in order to proactively respond to a rapidly growing hydrogen economy society.
