6 MW alkaline electrolyser module fitting in a 40-ft container
Thanks to its design, the multi-MW electrolyser platform will be able to target several different markets within transportation, Power-to-X, chemicals, and industry. Additionally, GreenHyScale will demonstrate the next generation of electrolysers that operate at pressures above 80 bar and at current density f 1000mA/cm2.

electrolyser module
7,5 MW alkaline electrolyser module operating at 80 bars and tailored for offshore operation
During the project, test results will be used to establish a feasibility assessment of having a high-pressure module as part of a platform set-up. These results are critical for the competitiveness of a green hydrogen produced offshore from wind, as well as of the hydrogen pipeline infrastructure.
