A New AEM Electrolyser System and its First Domestic Customer

Hygreen Energy has unveiled its advanced Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) electrolyser system, offering customisable hydrogen generation up to 500kW with a 10-120% load range.

Hygreen Energy, a leading player in hydrogen production technology, has announced the launch of its innovative Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) electrolyser system, with its first domestic customer secured for a key demonstration project. The new AEM system is customisable for hydrogen generation up to 500kW and operates efficiently across a 10-120% load range.

The AEM electrolyser will be deployed in the ‘Hydrogen into Ten Thousand Homes’ initiative, which seeks to promote hydrogen energy and its applications in industrial parks across China.

Hygreen is scheduled to deliver the 10kW AEM system in September 2024, with commissioning expected by October. The customer plans to expand usage with additional AEM electrolysers over time, marking a significant step forward in hydrogen adoption.

“Hygreen Energy’s new AEM electrolyser system represents a significant leap forward in hydrogen production technology by combining safety, operational flexibility, and a turnkey approach,” said Benny Wang, CEO of Hygreen Energy.

“Our AEM system is designed to be competitive across a wide range of applications, and we are excited to see its impact on the future of the hydrogen sector.”

In addition to its success in the Chinese market, Hygreen is expanding globally with plans to build a 5GW alkaline electrolyser factory in Malaga, Spain, as part of a €2bn European expansion. The company is also establishing a new plant in India, aimed at supporting the country’s growing hydrogen sector.

This facility will focus on the production of AEM and alkaline electrolysers, catering to both domestic and regional demand. The site’s capacity will be scaled based on European growth and market demand, with the non-domestic market projected to overtake demand in China by 2025.
