Next Hydrogen Achieves Milestone in Hydrogen Production
Key Ideas
  • Next Hydrogen successfully tests its GEN2 electrolysis cells for durability, achieving high efficiency in green hydrogen production.
  • The cells outperform DOE technical targets with less than 1.9 V per cell at 1 amp/cm2 and operate at 70oC, making them ideal for connection to renewables.
  • After 3,000 hours of cyclic testing, Next Hydrogen is now ready to deploy the GEN2 cells in commercial electrolysers ranging from 0.75MW to 2.25MW.
  • The company plans to introduce an even more efficient GEN3 product in 2025, building on the success of GEN2 for large-scale green hydrogen production.
Next Hydrogen Solutions has successfully completed a significant durability test of its GEN2 electrolysis cells, marking a key milestone in green hydrogen production. The cells have demonstrated exceptional efficiency, surpassing US DOE targets with less than 1.9 V per cell at 1 amp/cm2 and performing at 70oC. Moreover, they exhibit 2 times higher peak operating point and offer a turn-down of 10%, making them an optimal solution for connecting to renewables. Following 3,000 hours of cyclic testing, the cells are now set for commercial deployment in various sizes, enhancing the company's product line efficiency. Next Hydrogen also plans to unveil a more advanced GEN3 product in 2025, building on the success of GEN2. The company's focus on high current density operations and dynamic response highlights its commitment to converting intermittent renewable electricity into green hydrogen on a large scale, contributing to decarbonization efforts in transportation and industrial sectors.
