Different Types of Hydrogen Electrolysers: PEM, Alkaline, and Solid Oxide Explained
The high need for green hydrogen as a clean energy source has aroused keen interest in the technologies that make such production possible. Hydrogen electrolysers are prominent in this process, which effectively splits water into hydrogen and oxygen with the help of electricity. The efficiency and efficacy of green hydrogen production usually rely on the kind of electrolyser utilized. In the blog, we take an in-depth look at three hydrogen electrolyser technologies: Alkaline and Solid. We discuss their modes of operation, relative advantages, and proper site applications for each. Hydrogen Electrolysers: What are they? Hydrogen electrolysers use electricity to perform water electrolysis, separating water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. The resulting hydrogen can then be stored, transported, and used as a clean fuel for various applications, from industrial processes to powering fuel cells. Various electrolysers have different uses, efficiencies, operational temperatu...
