Next Hydrogen delivers electrolyser module to Hyundai
The pilot test demonstrated the ability to operate at significantly higher current densities
Next Hydrogen Solutions Inc. has delivered to Hyundai Motor Company a proof of concept alkaline electrolyser module incorporating Hyundai Motor cell components.
Hyundai Motor, Kia Corporation (Kia) and Next Hydrogen signed a memorandum of understanding in July 2021 to advance electrolyser module-related technologies that are at the core of the alkaline water electrolysis system to reduce the cost of building the system and maintaining/operating the system.
The pilot test demonstrated the ability to operate at significantly higher current densities and temperatures compared to traditional alkaline electrolysers, providing a pathway to cost-effective green hydrogen production.
Raveel Afzaal, President and CEO of Next Hydrogen, said, “Combining Hyundai Motor and Kia’s state-of-the-art cell component technology with our innovative cell design architecture has demonstrated significant potential to improve the known performance of alkaline water electrolysers and to produce green hydrogen economically.”
