PEM Electrolysis Stack: powerhouse and all-rounder for a wide range of applications

Branches of industry such as the steel, chemical, fertilizer, glass, and ceramics sectors already use large quantities of hydrogen. These sectors are now switching their hydrogen production over to large PEM electrolysis systems with outputs of several hundred megawatts as part of the transformation to decarbonized, more sustainable energy sources.

Moreover, there is an important market for PEM electrolysis in regions of the world where solar and wind power can be used more efficiently than in Central Europe. In these regions, large-scale systems are being set up to produce green hydrogen and its derivatives for export to the target markets.

In scalable, decentralized plants with capacities of up to twenty megawatts, our PEM electrolysis stacks are ideal for integrating into container solutions that are positioned in the exact location where the hydrogen is used. These solutions reduce transport costs and are ideal for production plants that want to cover their own requirements for hydrogen as a process gas or for their energy needs.

Hydrogen filling stations can also use decentralized H₂ production to supplement or replace hydrogen deliveries. In wind or solar farms, the energy obtained via PEM electrolysis can be directly converted into hydrogen. It can then be stored and transported in this form, using mobile tanks or via gas pipelines, for example.
