???? 據全球能源新聞4月6日報道，普拉格能源（Plug Power）,查特工業公司（Chart Industries, Inc.）和貝克休斯(Baker Hughes)宣布他們有意成為FiveT氫基金的基礎投資者，FiveT氫基金是一個獨特的新型清潔氫私人基礎設施基金，致力于大規模交付清潔氫基礎設施項目。
????Plug Power計劃投入1.6億歐元（合2億美元），查特工業公司和貝克休斯公司分別計劃投入5000萬歐元（合6000萬美元），以確認FiveT將為氫氣行業帶來的獨特價值主張。這些投資使FiveT能夠在氫工業的核心地位，并幫助推進更廣泛的全球使命，以應對氣候變化和加快能源轉型。這只以歐元計價的基金，只提供給合格的和經過核實的投資者，其雄心是從金融和工業投資者那里籌集總計10億歐元的資金。
????能源行業和許多公司普遍認為，氫經濟需要迅速擴大規模，才能取得成功，并成為構建凈零全球經濟解決方案的關鍵部分。投資者在推動成功方面發揮著重要作用，氫基礎設施領域的金融和戰略利益相關者之間的智能合作可以釋放更廣泛氫經濟的潛力，加快投資步伐，支持未來的凈零排放。Plug Power、查特工業公司和貝克休斯是該基金的早期基石投資者，幫助其建立市場地位，并使其投資活動的第一階段成為可能。
????該基金將專門資助清潔氫氣的生產、儲存和分配項目。這些項目的目標是實現強勁的基礎設施回報，實現真正的可持續性，對環境、社會和企業產生持久影響。該基金將繼續尋求與尋求建立氫能源供應鏈的工業公司結盟，并形成聯盟以擴大項目規模。
????通過將雄厚的財政實力和嚴格的投資與對氫市場及其技術的無與倫比的知識和準入相結合，該基金有望成為氫基礎設施項目融資和建設的催化劑。該基金由Pierre Etienne Franc領導，截至3月31日，他是液化空氣公司氫能源副總裁和氫委員會的聯合秘書。
????Plug Power Inc.是一家從事氫燃料電池系統開發的美國公司，該系統可替代電力驅動設備和車輛中的傳統電池。該公司總部設在紐約州的萊瑟姆，在華盛頓州的斯波坎和紐約州的羅切斯特設有辦事處。

????BAKER HUGHES TO INVEST IN FiveT HYDROGEN FUND WITH TWO US PARTNERS
????Plug Power, Chart Industries, Inc. and Baker Hughes, are announcing their intention to become cornerstone investors in the formation of the FiveT Hydrogen Fund, a unique new clean-hydrogen-only private infrastructure fund dedicated to delivering clean hydrogen infrastructure projects at scale.
????Plug Power intends to commit €160 million ($200 million), and Chart Industries and Baker Hughes each intend to commit €50 million respectively ($60 million), recognising the unique value proposition that FiveT will bring to the hydrogen sector. These investments enable FiveT to establish itself at the heart of the hydrogen industry and help advance a broader global mission to address climate change and accelerate the energy transition. This Euro-denominated Fund, offered only to qualifying and verified investors, has the ambition to raise a total of €1 billion from both financial and industrial investors.
????The energy industry and many corporations broadly agree the hydrogen economy needs to build scale at speed to succeed and become a key part of the solution to building a net-zero global economy. Investors have an important role to play in driving success, and smart collaboration between financial and strategic stakeholders in hydrogen infrastructure can unlock the potential of the broader hydrogen economy, accelerating the pace of investment and supporting a net-zero emissions future. Plug Power, Chart Industries and Baker Hughes are early cornerstone investors in the Fund, helping it to establish its market presence and enabling the first stages of its investment activity.
????The Fund will exclusively finance projects in the production, storage and distribution of clean hydrogen. Projects will aim to achieve strong infrastructure returns and deliver true sustainability for a lasting impact on environment, society and businesses. The Fund will continually seek alliances with industrial companies looking to build the hydrogen energy supply chain and form alliances to grow projects at scale.
????By combining deep financial strength and investment rigor with unparalleled knowledge of and access to the hydrogen market and its technology, the Fund is expected to be a catalyst for both the financing and building of hydrogen infrastructure projects. The Fund is led by Pierre Etienne Franc, who was, up to the 31st of March, the vice president of Hydrogen Energy for Air Liquide and co-secretary of the Hydrogen Council.
????Plug Power Inc. is an American company engaged in the development of hydrogen fuel cell systems that replace conventional batteries in equipment and vehicles powered by electricity. The company is headquartered in Latham, New York, and has facilities in Spokane, Washington, and Rochester, New York.
????Chart Industries, Inc. is a leading independent global manufacturer of highly engineered equipment servicing multiple applications in the Energy and Industrial Gas markets. Our unique product portfolio is used in every phase of the liquid gas supply chain, including upfront engineering, service and repair. The company is headquartered in Ball Ground, Georgia, USA.
