Hydrogen from the region - for the region

Decentralized hydrogen production
with PEM electrolysis

With PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) electrolysis, you can rely on one of the most efficient technologies for hydrogen production. Thanks to its compact design and fast reactivity, the hydrogen electrolyser can convert surplus electricity, for example from renewable energies, directly into high-purity hydrogen.
The high dynamics of this hydrogen electrolyser also enable it to react flexibly to fluctuating energy sources, which makes it particularly suitable for integration into green energy systems. This allows you to produce hydrogen cost-effectively and sustainably – the key technology for a clean future.


Our PEM electrolysers are based on cascadable stacks that each generate up to 200 Nm³/h of hydrogen. The PEM stacks can be regulated between 10 and 100 percent of the nominal output and quickly adapted to load changes. The standardized modular design of our greenelectrolyzer series is ideal for system sizes with nominal loads of up to 50 MW.
