Manufacturer and co-developer sought for upscaling highly efficient industrial alkaline electrolysers (AEL) for producing hydrogen in the power range from 150kW to 50+ MW

This Dutch company offers a highly efficient industrial alkaline electrolysers (AEL) for producing hydrogen in the power range from 150kW to 50+ MW at a desired purity and with a variable output pressure between 1 bar (14.5 pound-force per square inch or Psi) and 30 bar (435.1 Psi). The systems can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from mobility to build environment and industry. The electrolysers are very well suited for dynamic operation and direct connection to renewable energy sources (photovoltaic(PV)-field, wind turbines). Each system comprises a family of interconnecting gas modules, supported by all necessary supporting components and auxiliary systems for operational performance and plant safety. Gas modules are equipped with smart control software and embedded electronics, allowing the electrolysis process to run smoothly at maximum efficiency. System design is based on product configuration rather than custom engineered solutions. In order to execute capacity expansion rapidly, the system uses modular and standardised components. Time-consuming event-driven process (EPC) procedures therefore belong to the past. These Dutch SME’s electrolysers contain no rare earth metals, gaskets nor membranes, which for the absence of wear parts, extends the lifespan and enhances the reliability. To satisfy future demand throughput, capacity is expandable in chunks of 2,6kW. Efficiency, low operating costs, ease of use, and high safety standards are key values of the electrolyser systems. They are working on certification of the systems and preparing for mass production of its electrolysers and the company is working on certification. Therefore the company is looking for long-term cooperation with a manufacturer for the large-scale production of the gas modules. The manufacturer has expertise, production technology and facilities for the assembly (connection technology) and testing of high-quality plastic parts. Experience with high-precision assembly under special production conditions is a prerequisite. The partner they are looking for is probably working as a co-manufacturer for the automotive industry, medical sector or electronic equipment. The company is offering a manufacturing and/or technical cooperation agreement, but is open to other forms of cooperation. Co-development is the basis of the desired collaboration.
