ITM Power has signed an agreement with Power On Connections Ltd, a leading expert in utilities connections, to increase ITM’s power supply at Bessemer Park by 300% from 7.5 to 30 megavolt amperes (MVA) by the end of 2024. This additional power supply will enable ITM Power to significantly increase product testing aligned with our growth ambitions.
As a first step towards a larger testing capacity, ITM Power has increased the Company’s power supply by 50% from 5 to 7.5MVA. This power upgrade is available with immediate effect and allows testing of two 2 MW modules simultaneously.
Dennis Schulz said: "As part of our 12-month plan, in January I stated our intention to increase testing capacity in order to satisfy our project delivery needs. Today’s announcement is an important step to de-bottlenecking our manufacturing output and an important enabler for scaling production."
