  • Development of Alkaline Membrane Electrolyzers Using Cost-Effective Catalyst

    BY Sophia Schmitz
    A collaborative team from the Technical University of Berlin, HZB, IMTEK (University of Freiburg), and Siemens Energy has developed an alkaline membrane electrolyzer that shows promise in approaching the performance of established proton-exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers. The electrolyzer uses cost-effective nickel compounds for the anode catalyst, replacing the traditionally costly and rare iridium. The team...
