April 1, 2021 – Alstom is
pursuing its strategy of sustainable development and innovation
with the acquisition of Helion Hydrogen Power. This promising,
innovation-driven company, a 100% subsidiary of AREVA Energies
Renouvelables, is specialised in high power fuel cells, thus
complementing Alstom's expertise in hydrogen technology.
Through this acquisition, Alstom, who is playing
a pioneering role in hydrogen in the field of hydrogen for the
railway sector, extends its portfolio of innovative, competitive
solutions and pursues the implementation of its Alstom in Motion
strategic plan. It also strengthens its technological footprint in
France and its local presence in the region of Provence-Alpes-Côte
d'Azur, in addition to its current sites in Aix-en-Provence and
Vitrolles.
"This acquisition is an exciting development
opportunity for Helion Hydrogen Power and its employees. Alstom
will focus on developing the full potential of the innovative
technology and expertise of this promising company. This
transaction is in line with Alstom's strategy to extend and enhance
its expertise in sustainable, intelligent mobility," says
Jean-Baptiste Eyméoud, President of Alstom France.
Helion Hydrogen Power employs nearly 30
experienced, multidisciplinary staff at its site in
Aix-en-Provence. The company covers the entire value chain of
high-power fuel cells: design, development, manufacturing,
engineering support and customer training. Today, it focuses mainly
on the energy and transport markets, in France and abroad. Helion
Hydrogen Power has been involved in more than 100 projects and some
30 of its solutions are in operation worldwide.
Following the completion of the transaction,
which took place on April 1, 2021, the company, renamed ALSTOM
Hydrogène S.A.S., will become a wholly owned subsidiary of
Alstom.Moreover, Alstom remains committed to its current suppliers
to ensure the smooth running of current offers and projects.
