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.
H2U Technologies and Tokyo Gas have entered a multi-year Joint Development Agreement to discover novel catalysts and develop techniques to apply those catalysts onto membranes. The companies will leverage H2U’s proprietary Catalyst Discovery Engine (CDE) to reduce the cost of PEM electrolyzers.
HIF Global and Siemens Energy have reached an agreement allowing Siemens Energy to expand its electrolyzer manufacturing capacity beyond its previously announced plans. The agreement will assist HIF Global in obtaining sufficient capacity for its planned Matagorda eFuels facility in Texas.
Israeli cleantech company H2Pro has announced its agreement with Sumitomo Corporation to partner on a variety of green hydrogen initiatives. Under the agreement, Sumitomo will integrate H2Pro’s E-TAC electrolyzers at the hundreds of MW scale, primarily for use in green ammonia projects.
Agfa has announced that its Board of Directors has validated the investment for a new industrial unit for the company’s Zirfon membranes for green hydrogen production, next to further investments in growing the current facility. The unit will be installed in existing buildings at the company’s site in Mortsel, Belgium.
Alma Clean Power, Hydrogenious LOHC Technologies and Hydrogenious LOHC Maritime have announced a joint development agreement to engineer a fully integrated LOHC-SOFC (liquid organic hydrogen carrier-solid oxide fuel cell) power system for the HyNjord project supported by Enova.
HAV Hydrogen has received Approval in Principle (AiP) from DNV for its deck-based containerized hydrogen energy system for ships. The company will be ready to start manufacturing of the system during H2 of 2023, aiming for the first deliveries in 2024.
EvolOH has announced that it will build a manufacturing plant in Massachusetts for the fabrication and assembly of its anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolyzer stacks. When fully operational, this facility will have a capacity for up to 3.75 GW per year of electrolyzer stacks, making it the largest in the world.
thyssenkrupp Steel has placed an order with SMS group for the engineering, delivery and construction of the first hydrogen-powered direct reduction plant at the Duisburg location. This marks the start of one of the biggest industrial decarbonization projects worldwide. The startup is planned for the end of 2026.
