An AEM electrolyzer (Anion Exchange Membrane electrolyzer) is a next-generation hydrogen production technology that utilizes an anion exchange membrane to enable water electrolysis, offering a compelling blend of cost efficiency and performance. Hyto Energy’s AEM electrolyzers are engineered to address the limitations of traditional electrolyzer technologies, making them a promising solution for both green hydrogen production and industrial applications. At the core of an AEM electrolyzer is the anion exchange membrane, which conducts hydroxide ions (OH⁻) from the cathode to the anode during electrolysis. This membrane eliminates the need for liquid electrolytes (common in alkaline systems) while allowing the use of non-precious metal catalysts (such as nickel) on the electrodes, drastically reducing material costs compared to PEM electrolyzers that require platinum. This unique combination makes AEM electrolyzers more affordable to produce and operate, without sacrificing efficiency. Hyto’s AEM electrolyzers exhibit impressive efficiency levels, approaching those of PEM systems, and offer good responsiveness to fluctuating power inputs, making them compatible with renewable energy sources like solar and wind. Their design is also more compact and modular than alkaline electrolyzers, enabling easier installation in distributed settings—from commercial buildings to small industrial facilities. Additionally, they operate at moderate temperatures, reducing energy losses and simplifying thermal management. As a technology in the early stages of commercial deployment, AEM electrolyzers are continuously being optimized by Hyto, with a focus on enhancing membrane durability and system reliability. These advancements are poised to make AEM electrolyzers a key player in scaling up hydrogen production, particularly for applications where cost and efficiency are equally critical.
