HYDROLITE - AEM Electrolyzer Technology for Hydrogen Generation

SHARE
Hydrolite leverages a decade of experience in Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) materials and systems development to deliver competitive hydrogen generation devices. These devices are crucial in advancing the implementation of hydrogen technology by improving both the supply and utilization of stored hydrogen energy. The AEM electrolyzers operate similarly to fuel cells but in reverse, using catalytic materials to convert water and electrical energy into hydrogen and oxygen. Single cells can be assembled into electrolyzer stacks to form modules ranging from a few kilowatts to tens of megawatts. This approach reduces the cost of green hydrogen to under $3/kg, making it economically viable. Hydrolite's technology eliminates several cost drivers while maintaining the advantages of exchange membrane fuel cells. This positions them as a key player in enabling the Hydrogen Economy, contributing significantly to decarbonization efforts.

The advantages of AEM (Anion exchange membrane) Electrolyzers technology are applicable both to the generation of and use of hydrogen, ie both Fuel Cells and Electrolyzers. In the quest to advance the roll-out of hydrogen technology, both the the capability and capacity both to supply and to make use of stored hydrogen energy need to be addressed. HYDROLITE is drawing on a decade of AEM materials and systems development in the Fuel Cell to generate highly competitive hydrogen generating devices capable of reducing the cost of so-called Green Hydrogen to competitive, sub-$3/kg levels.

The electrolyzer device though using different catalytic materials from the fuel cell, functions in essence like the fuel cell running in reverse:

2H2O(l) + Electrical Energy ⇒ 2H2(g) + O2(g)

The concept of scaling work in the same way – single cells are assembled into electrolyzer stacks, which can be combined to form any arbitrary sized module that may be sized from a few kW to tens of MW.

Multiple critical materials cost drivers are eliminated with HYDROLITE AEM Device Technology, while retaining the performance advantages of exchange membrane fuel cells. Our technology is set to help enable the rapid emergence of a Hydrogen Economy towards deep decarbonization over the coming decades.
