Description
To produce hydrogen with a minimal carbon footprint, one solution is to separate the water molecule (H2O) by using renewable electricity. For this the water electrolysis process comes into play.
While this technology is a simple process, the high costs as opposed to traditional processes of producing hydrogen makes it still challenging.
As such the decrease in accompanying costs are essential for any project to be sustainable. Halske with its partners looks into the efficiency parameters of the electrolysis for each application in order to be able to apply best in class solutions. Such efficiency parameter is mainly determining for the power consumption and as such the operating costs. Such efficiency parameters include also peripheral analysis such as operating modes and investment costs.
Halske works with specific system manufacturers to generate the right balance between lowest possible hydrogen generation costs and maximum availability for its client’s projects over a long time. A main focus for Halske is the Proton Exchange Membrane technology, as it offers the adaptability to fluctuations inavailable energy environment.
