ITM designs and manufactures electrolysers based on proton exchange membrane technology to produce green hydrogen. ITM and Mott are collaborating to support the growth of advance porous transport layers (PTL), which are a key component of proton exchange membrane nelectrolysis.

In a statement, ITM said: “The two companies, both leaders in their fields with a strong R&D (research and development) foundation and reputation for pioneering innovation, are working together to further enhance the efficiency and performance of ITM's already proven PEM electrolysis technology, and to develop ITM's next generation stack.”

Dennis Schulz, the CEO of ITM Power, said: "Mott has demonstrated capability to meet our exacting requirements supported by stringent quality control and innovation. Together, we are progressing real-world technology to advance and future-proof the production of green hydrogen. Our collaboration will cement ITM's technology leadership and play an important role in our supply chain."

Boris Levin, the CEO of Mott, said: "As the largest provider of porous transport layers in the world, we are proud to strengthen our partnership with ITM and support its stack technology. Mott's porous transport layers are controlled to the tightest tolerances and have the most precise surface finish on the market, and we are excited to continue working with ITM to enhance our technology and drive green hydrogen production. Our partnership is based on a shared commitment to excellence and precision."
