Main difference between technologies: electrolyte and ions transferred (OH- / H+/ O2-)

Three main technologies in water electrolysis:

• Alkaline Water Electrolysis (AWE) with a liquid, alkaline electrolyteat temperatures between 40 °C and 90 °C

• Proton Exchange Membrane / Polymer Exchange Membrane (PEM) Electrolysiswith a proton conductive solid polymer electrolyte at temperatures between 20 °C and 100° °C

• High-temperature electrolysis (HTEL) with a solid oxide electrolyzer cell (SOEC)at temperatures between 700 °C and 1000 °C, fed with water vapor

Water Electrolysis Technologies


• 20 MW Power Module

• Hydrogen production: 4000 Nm³/h

• Easily Scalable

• Proven cell design

• Large size cell- close to 3 m2

tkUCE – AWE 20 MW Module


>82 % stack efficiency (HHV, 4.3 kWh/Nm³ DC)

H2 purity: >99.95 % (from electrolyser, dry basis) to99,999% (after purification/drying)
