The core of the system is a 50 Nm3/h electrolyser (which must be upgradable to 100 Nm3/h) that delivers hydrogen at an outlet pressure of 30 barg. The main equipment will be delivered in a containerized/skid version divided into three specific areas: a control panel area with the AC/DC converter, a water purification unit, and an ATEXclassified area containing the stacks and gas purification treatment. In addition to the containerized unit, the scope of supply includes several external components: An MV/LV transformer A thermal management system (dry cooler) A lowpressure hydrogen storage system consisting of a cylinder rack at 30 bar with a total volume of 5 m3 A gas blender installed on the outlet piping after the storage Finally, the procurement includes a comprehensive service package covering the Factory Acceptance Test (FAT), Site Acceptance Test (SAT), ATEX verification, staff training, two years of spare parts, and a 3year maintenance contract. Reason for Purchasing The primary objective of this procurement is to produce green hydrogen by harnessing the renewable energy generated from the JRC Ispra site's internal photovoltaic (PV) plant. Currently, the site has a 1.35 MWp PV installation, which is planned to be expanded to 2 MWp and eventually 3 MWp in the future. Instead of using battery systems, the JRC intends to use the excess energy from this PV plant to power the electrolyser for selfconsumption. The hydrogen produced will then be blended into the natural gas pipeline (up to a 10% volume blend) to feed the site's cogenerators. A dedicated technical sizing analysis concluded that a modular 2x250 kW electrolyser is the optimal choice, as it offers the best compromise between the available PV power, the number of operating hours, and the demand from the cogenerators across current and future PV expansion scenarios supplies In case of unavailability or disruptions in the functioning of the electronic means of communication provided in Section 5.1.11 in the last 5 calendar days before the time limit for receipt indicated in Section 5.1.12, the contracting authority reserves the right to extend this time limit and publish the extension at the Internet address provided in Section 5.1.11, without a preceding publication of a corrigendum to this notice. Economic operators interested in this procurement are invited to subscribe to the call for tenders at the address in Section 5.1.11 in order to get notified when new information or documents are published. true 1100000 42980000 Please consult the procurement documents. anyw-cou ITA LOT-0001 HORIZONEU eu-funds default-text non-restricted-document ENG official https://ec.europa.eu/info/funding-tenders/opportunities/portal/screen/opportunities/tender-details/a2c207c5-43fe-42dc-9a1b-05e03990752c-CN?#anchorDocuments epo-procurement-document none no allowed not-allowed per-exa 60 quality Please consult the procurement documents. per-exa 40 price Please consult the procurement documents. https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/digit/opsys/esubmission?cftUuid=a2c207c5-43fe-42dc-9a1b-05e03990752c 6 ORG-0001 ORG-0002 BUL CES DAN DEU ELL ENG SPA EST FIN FRA GLE HRV HUN ITA LIT LAV MLT NLD POL POR RON SLK SLV SWE true true Funding and Tenders Portal required true https://ec.europa.eu/info/funding-tenders/opportunities/portal/screen/opportunities/tender-details/a2c207c5-43fe-42dc-9a1b-05e03990752c-CN?#anchorDocuments 2026-10-01+02:00 16:00:59+02:00 2026-09-23+02:00 23:59:59+02:00 408830-2026 2026-10-02+02:00 10:00:00+02:00 false none none EC-JRC/IPR/2026/OP/3317 Supply, Installation and maintenance of a PEM Electrolyser for Hydrogen Production at JRC Ispra The procurement entails the design, manufacturing, delivery, installation, and commissioning of a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolysis system for hydrogen production at the JRC Ispra site.
