HydrogenPro Develops World's Largest Electrolyzer in the Shape of a Screwdriver

According to HydrogenPro, the largest electrolyzer in the world has arrived at its test location in Herøya, Norway.

A press release by Chemical Engineering revealed on Wednesday, Sept. 14 that the electrolyzer for HydrogenPro will be put together and deployed in the upcoming weeks.

Critical Milestone

Clean energy or low-carbon power is used to create green hydrogen. Green hydrogen has far lower carbon emissions than grey hydrogen, which makes up most of the hydrogen industry and is produced by steam reforming natural gas.

"This project is a critical milestone for large, green hydrogen projects. It requires substantial planning, rigging, and the right equipment. This project is important to facilitate larger, green hydrogen projects, reducing carbon footprints and costs," the company's chief product officer (CPO) Karoline Aafos said in a statement.

The electrolyzer cargo that departed Tianjin, China, will create 1,100 Nm3/hour of hydrogen at a normal current density, according to HydrogenPro.

HydrogenPro further noted that this equates to 100 kg of pure hydrogen each hour, establishing a new standard for the sector. At the same time, the diameter of the electrolyzer is two meters.

All About HydrogenPro

According to its corporate portfolio, HydrogenPro is a technological firm that produces high-pressure alkaline electrolyzers and provides companies with massive green hydrogen plants.

In sum, HydrogenPro specializes in hydrogen and sustainable energy.

Chief Commercial Officer Erik Christian Bolstad said that this is a significant milestone for the company because it provides additional evidence that their technique for producing green hydrogen on a big scale is effective.

He added that the plant's performance would enhance the company's delivery to one of the world's biggest factories for green hydrogen.
