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.
Proton Motor Power Systems plc, the UK parent company of hydrogen fuel cell manufacturer Proton Motor Fuel Cell GmbH, has signed a 15-year lease agreement for a 13,500 m2 production facility, which will be used to significantly expand the company’s manufacturing, testing and development capabilities.
Hiperbaric, a Spanish developer of high-pressure technologies, has signed an agreement with Lhyfe to supply hydrogen compressors that the French green hydrogen producer will use for selected projects in Europe in the coming years. For Hiperbaric, the agreement is the largest of its kind to date.
McPhy Energy has announced the final investment decision (FID) for its Gigafactory of alkaline electrolyzers on the Belfort site in France, taken by its Board of Directors on 26 October. Commissioning is scheduled for the first half of 2024, with a gradual ramp-up to reach an annual production capacity of 1 GW.
On 1 November, Bloom Energy inaugurated its high-volume commercial electrolyzer line at the company’s Newark, Delaware facility, increasing its generating capacity of electrolyzers to 2 GW. The award-winning technology is said to be the most energy-efficient design to produce clean hydrogen to date.
NewHydrogen will further expand the existing sponsored research agreement with UCLA to develop technology to reduce the cost of green hydrogen production. The expanded program scope will include the development of efficient and stable hydrogen production using PEM electrolyzers.
Alfa Laval has signed an agreement to deliver compact heat exchangers to the world’s largest green hydrogen plant, to be constructed in the Middle East. The facility will be part of the city of Neom, built from scratch in the northwestern desert, with the ambition of establishing a new model for sustainable living.
In a serendipitous scientific discovery, a team of researchers from the National University of Singapore have found that light can trigger a new mechanism in a catalytic material used extensively in water electrolysis. The result is a more energy-efficient – and potentially revolutionary – method of obtaining hydrogen.
In what is seen as a major breakthrough, researchers of the Dutch applied technology institute TNO have developed an advanced electrocatalyst that reduces the required amount of iridium by a factor of 200, while achieving an average of one third of the performance of current PEM electrolysers.
