A platform approach to support McPhy’s growth strategy, in particular with the preparation of its new Gigafactory in France in 2024.
Paris and Lyon, France — December 20, 2022 — Dassault Systèmes (Euronext Paris: FR0014003TT8, DSY.PA), McPhy Energy (Euronext Paris: FR0011742329, MCPHY.PA) and Visiativ (Euronext Growth Paris: FR0004029478, ALVIV) are joining forces to encourage the transition to green energy and enable McPhy to strengthen its competitiveness on the market for low-carbon hydrogen production and distribution equipment, thus confirming its leading role on the hydrogen market.
The three leaders in their fields have joined forces to deploy Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE at McPhy in order to optimize the performance of its equipment, processes and tools used in its development, engineering and production centers in France, Germany and in Italy. McPhy – a long-time SOLIDWORKS customer – chose to turn to a collaborative platform deployed by the Visiativ teams. The latter offers more collaborative product design and life cycle management functionalities, thus helping to support its growth strategy in the face of the ramp-up of its activity, in particular with the preparation of its new Gigafactory in France in 2024.
« The Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE platform, deployed by Visiativ, will help us structure our teams and our activity. The implementation of a unified architecture on all of our sites (France, Italy and Germany) is a key step in the industrial ramp-up of McPhy, with the aim of optimizing the collaborative processes of our European technology teams. . We will also reduce lead times for our customers in product development and project engineering, in particular by modeling the manufacturing process before the launch of our products on the market. », declares Benoît Barrière, Chief Technology Officer of McPhy.
Achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 means giving up fossil fuels to power the bulk of global energy consumption. McPhy’s low-carbon hydrogen electrolyzers and fueling stations are increasingly recognized by the industrial, mobility and energy markets as a viable solution to decarbonize their operations. Low-carbon hydrogen can be used to decarbonize the industrial sector as an energy carrier or as a raw material for steel production. It can also be transformed into clean fuel to recharge hydrogen vehicles, be injected into gas networks or be used as an energy storage solution to contribute to the transition to renewable energies.
The deployment of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform will allow McPhy to leverage the knowledge and know-how of all of its employees by standardizing design and simulation processes and applications, centralizing data and project management and facilitating the interaction between its teams.
« As the world moves away from fossil fuels, our 3DEXPERIENCE platform offers new technological approaches to innovation at all stages of the life cycle, for equipment and products that contribute to a more sustainable economy. “, said Philippe Bartissol, Vice President, Industrial Equipment Industry, Dassault Systèmes. ” Game changers like McPhy can collaborate, innovate and manage the entire product lifecycle through a virtual twin. »
Visiativ, a long-standing partner of Dassault Systèmes and the digital transformation of companies, supports McPhy in the deployment of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. This support will allow all users to better collaborate and innovate by centralizing data and project management. This structuring and multidisciplinary project was made possible thanks to the perfect knowledge of Dassault Systèmes solutions coupled with the knowledge of the field challenges of this client.
« The success of this partnership lies in the collaboration, mutual trust and commitment of the teams from McPhy, Dassault Systèmes and Visiativ “, said Laurent Fiard, Chairman and CEO of Visiativ. « We are very happy to support McPhy in this global project which is part of the company’s strategy. This perfectly illustrates how the hydrogen industry is positioning itself to succeed in achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 and we are happy to be committed alongside McPhy and the hydrogen industry in this journey. »
