Water electrolyzers are electrochemical devices used to split water into its constituent elements, hydrogen and oxygen, by passage of an electrical current. There are four main types of electrolyzers: alkaline and proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers are already mature, while anion exchange membrane (AEM) and solid oxide electrolyzers are still under development. These technologies differ in numerous ways, most notably in cell design and variations within components. In this section you can find news items related to various aspects of electrolyzer technologies, equipment and components. If you would like to see your news release published here and in our email newsletter, please feel free to contact Matjaž Matošec.
Ceres Power has announced that its first megawatt-scale solid oxide electrolyser cell (SOEC) demonstrator system – located at Shell’s Technology Centre in Bangalore, India – is now operational and producing hydrogen.
HydrogenPro has commenced production of its next-generation electrodes at a new manufacturing line in Aarhus, Denmark. This development marks a significant step in scaling up the company’s delivery capabilities and represents a major investment in its green hydrogen business.
The Hydrohub MegaWatt Test Centre, located at EnTranCe – Centre of Expertise Energy in Groningen, the Netherlands, has successfully produced its first green hydrogen under high pressure and at elevated temperatures (up to 80 °C).
Samsung E&A has announced the launch of CompassH2, a green hydrogen production plant solution developed in collaboration with Norwegian electrolyser manufacturer Nel. According to Samsung E&A, the system is designed to deliver a high level of performance and cost-competitiveness by integrating engineering services with Nel’s electrolyser technology.
Asahi Kasei has launched a joint demonstration project with Nobian, Furuya Metal, and Mastermelt to recycle metals, including precious metals, from the cells and electrodes used in electrolyzers for caustic soda production.
Germany’s largest PEM electrolyzer has gone into operation at BASF’s Ludwigshafen site. Designed to produce zero-carbon hydrogen, the electrolyzer has a connected load of 54 MW and a capacity to supply the main plant with up to one metric ton of this chemical feedstock every hour.
Nel has signed an EPC collaboration agreement that allows SAMSUNG E&A to offer its customers complete hydrogen plants of its own design using Nel’s electrolysers.
Elcogen has announced the official launch of the Horizon Europe SYRIUS project, which aims to transform the steel industry by enabling hydrogen production and circular energy use within the steelmaking process.
Evonik is building a pilot plant in Marl, Germany, for the production of its anion exchange membrane (AEM), marketed under the name DURAION®.
California Catalysts™ (Calicat™), formerly H2U Technologies, has announced a landmark achievement for generation 3 of its flagship product, the Amplifier zero-iridium PEMwe OER catalyst, which has achieved an unprecedented activity milestone of 2 Volts at a current density over 2 A/cm².
