IRENA – innovation trends in electrolysers for hydrogen production.
Electrolysis of water, using renewable electricity, is the sustainable option to produce green hydrogen as an attractive low-carbon energy carrier.
To respond to the growing demand for renewables-based hydrogen, an extraordinary expansion of the market for electrolysers is needed linked to a significant capacity increase in the manufacture and deployment of electrolysers.
A rapid reduction in electrolyser system costs is essential and technology innovation is crucial to this end.
