ITM’s state-of-the-art MEP30 electrolyser stack has been successfully UKCA marked. Manufactured products deployed to the GB market after 31 December 2024 must have the UKCA marking.

This enables green hydrogen projects in development stage today to benefit from the required certainty of a UK-based partner offering product compliant with legislation which will take effect during the course of their projects. The self-pressurised stack, which also maintains its CE marking for the EEA market, is the core element of ITM’s proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyser product portfolio. This is another achievement in line with ITM being the first PEM electrolyser company to deploy three-digit MW plants in the market worldwide.

Staying one step ahead, ITM are also the first to announce UKCA accreditation, future-proofing and demonstrating continual developing of their products ensuring compliance with legislation crucial to serve the UK market. The legislation has been factored into the product design with the marking applied for in advance of the legal changes taking effect to ensure continuity and no disruption to the decarbonisation efforts in the UK. 

The United Kingdom Conformity Assessed or UKCA mark is being phased in to replace the CE mark in Great Britain (England, Wales and Scotland) and is a mandatory marking on a product to indicate that it conforms to GB legislation, applicable for products placed on the GB market after 31 December 2024.
