ITM Power PLC (AIM:ITM) said a £46.5 million grant from the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero has been formally awarded, giving the electrolyser maker public-sector backing for its next-generation Chronos manufacturing line in Sheffield. The grant, first announced in April, comes alongside a £40 million equity investment from Great British Energy.

ITM Power PLC (AIM:ITM) and Ceres Power Holdings PLC (LSE:CWR, OTC:CPWHF) have staged two of the most dramatic recoveries on the London market this year, with their shares up 160% and 230% respectively since January. Jefferies has responded by sharply upgrading its price targets on both stocks while sounding a note of caution about valuations that are beginning to echo the hydrogen hype of 2021.
