Electrolyzer Evolution: Navigating Challenges and Pioneering Innovations (PEM, AEM, SOEC)

Adrian Dettling, AVL Deutschland GmbH

The efficiency and energy demand of electrolyzers are crucial for the large-scale production of green hydrogen and its derivatives, directly impacting production costs. This study compares various electrolyzer technologies, highlighting their market status, efficiency, and operational characteristics. The improvement potential of PEM and the impact of Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) electrolyzers and Solid Oxide Electrolyzers (SOECs) on the market will be discussed.
