An AEM electrolyser (Anion Exchange Membrane electrolyser) is an innovative hydrogen production device that uses an anion exchange membrane as the electrolyte, combining the cost advantages of alkaline electrolyzers with the efficiency of PEM electrolyzers. Hyto Energy’s AEM electrolysers are at the forefront of this emerging technology, designed to make hydrogen production more accessible and sustainable. The working principle involves passing an electric current through water, with the anion exchange membrane facilitating the transport of hydroxide ions (OH⁻) from the cathode to the anode. This allows for the use of non-precious metal catalysts (e.g., nickel-based) on the electrodes, significantly reducing material costs compared to PEM electrolysers that rely on platinum-group metals. The membrane also acts as a barrier to separate hydrogen and oxygen gases, ensuring safe operation and high-purity hydrogen output. A key advantage of Hyto’s AEM electrolysers is their versatility. They operate efficiently across a range of power inputs, making them suitable for integration with renewable energy sources like solar and wind, where power output can be variable. Their design is also more compact than traditional alkaline electrolyzers, enhancing their suitability for both distributed (e.g., commercial or residential) and small to medium-scale industrial applications. While still in the early stages of commercialization, AEM electrolysers show great promise for scaling up green hydrogen production due to their balanced cost and performance. Hyto is committed to advancing this technology, focusing on improving membrane durability and system efficiency to meet the demands of diverse hydrogen applications.
