The PEM electrolyser is the key technology for the&nbsp;production of green hydrogen.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the partnership with TNO, Avantium will get access to TNO\u2019s technical knowledge and expertise &#8211; including design and&nbsp;software \u2013 on single-cell and multi-cell lab-scale electrolysis test stations. With this knowledge, Avantium will manufacture, further&nbsp;develop, and sell these electrolyser test stations to customers worldwide. This will allow Avantium R&amp;D Solutions to accelerate its&nbsp;electrolysis offering and expand its activities in the development of green hydrogen technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avantium R&amp;D Solutions&nbsp;offers innovative and tailored R&amp;D products and contract R&amp;D for selected sustainable chemistry markets.One of those&nbsp;areas is electrolysis for the production of green hydrogen.&nbsp;TNO is a globally recognized leader in research and innovation in various fields, including&nbsp;energy, sustainability, and technology. In the field of electrolysis, TNO has worked in the past years on improving the efficiency, scalability, and&nbsp;cost-effectiveness of electrolysis processes. TNO has developed single-cell and multiple cells PEM electrolysis test stations&nbsp;with multiple generations&nbsp;of improvements&nbsp;and has obtained unique expertise in this field.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TNO and Avantium intend to further develop and improve these&nbsp;PEM electrolyser test&nbsp;stations. Avantium will bring in its&nbsp;uniquely innovative&nbsp;expertise in accelerating R&amp;D, manufacturing and commercial skills, while using the know-how of TNO on electrolysis test units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Richard Braal, Division Director Industry at TNO<\/strong> Energy and Materials Transition, comments: \u201cWe are pleased to partner with Avantium and we see&nbsp;this as a first step towards a stronger collaboration with Avantium to jointly develop technologies and services to accelerate the energy transition in&nbsp;the chemical industry. This is a strong collaboration of two Dutch based and internationally operating parties and a nice example of where realizing&nbsp;the energy and materials transition can go hand in hand with increasing the export potential of industry\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lennart van der Burg, Cluster Manager Green Hydrogen at TNO<\/strong>, adds: \u201cThere is globally a large need for reliable high-performing electrolyser test&nbsp;stations in order to accelerate innovation, product development and securing safe operation of electrolyser technology.&nbsp;With the significant&nbsp;quantities of green hydrogen necessary for the energy transition, there is an imperative to significantly increase the capacity for green hydrogen&nbsp;production via electrolysis in the coming decade.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Steven Oliver, Managing Director of Avantium<\/strong> R&amp;D Solutions, says: \u201cWe believe that this partnership&nbsp;with TNO brings together two recognized&nbsp;leaders in R&amp;D and innovation to help industry to accelerate the development of electrolysis to manufacture green hydrogen. Currently, existing&nbsp;electrolysis technologies and manufacturing capabilities are insufficient to meet projected demand in the coming years. We believe we can serve&nbsp;the need to scale up electrolyser capacity while enhancing the technology&#8217;s design with our expertise on manufacturing custom-made, innovative&nbsp;R&amp;D units. This fits well within the purpose of Avantium: to help transition the chemical industry to sustainable and circular solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br>About Avantium<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Avantium is a pioneering commercial-stage company focused on renewable &amp; circular polymer materials. Avantium develops and commercialises&nbsp;innovative technologies for the production of materials based on sustainable carbon feedstocks, i.e. carbon from biomass or carbon from the air&nbsp;(CO<sub>2<\/sub>). The most advanced technology is the YXY\u00ae&nbsp;Technology that catalytically converts plant-based sugars into FDCA (furandicarboxylic acid), the&nbsp;key building block for the sustainable plastic PEF (polyethylene furanoate). Avantium has successfully demonstrated the YXY\u00ae&nbsp;Technology at its&nbsp;pilot plant in Geleen, the Netherlands, and is currently constructing of the world&#8217;s first commercial plant for FDCA, with large-scale production of&nbsp;PEF expected in 2024. Avantium also provides R&amp;D solutions in the field of sustainable chemistry and is the leading provider of advanced catalyst&nbsp;testing technology and services to accelerate catalyst R&amp;D. Avantium works in partnership with like-minded companies around the globe to create&nbsp;revolutionary renewable chemistry solutions from invention to commercial scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avantium\u2019s shares are listed on Euronext Amsterdam and Euronext Brussels (symbol: AVTX). Avantium is incorporated in the Euronext Amsterdam&nbsp;SmallCap Index (AScX).
