W.L. Gore & Associates, a global leader in proton exchange membrane (PEM) technology, has published a whitepaper showcasing the success of their PEM technology in reducing the levelised cost of hydrogen (LCOH) compared to traditional alternatives. The study analyzed Gore's PEM technology across three different use cases: a nuclear-powered steel mill in France, a green hydrogen production facility powered by offshore wind in the North Sea, and a local hydrogen production hub in Spain utilizing a photovoltaic system. Results indicated that Gore's PEM technology, specifically the GORE® PEM M275.80, achieved notable cost reductions compared to market PEM and alkaline solutions in these scenarios. Notably, the deployment of Gore's PEM technology in the French steel mill led to annual savings of €18.7 million compared to market PEM. The company's dedication to advancing PEM technologies and maximizing efficiency while ensuring durability and safety standards was highlighted in the study. Gore aims to further lower LCOH and position their PEM as a cost-effective alternative solution in various applications. The report emphasized the importance of highly conductive PEMs with reduced membrane proton resistance to enhance voltage efficiencies. Gore is committed to exploring additional use cases and expanding project parameters to gain insights into the broader impact of advanced PEM products on reducing LCOH. This signifies a positive outlook for the role of PEM technology in driving down the costs of hydrogen production and promoting sustainability in the energy industry.
