Power to Hydrogen delivers industrial-scale AEM electrolyzer to the Port of Antwerp-Bruges
In Belgium, Power to Hydrogen (P2H2), a developer of anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolyzer systems, announced it has delivered and begun installation of a first-of-a-kind half-megawatt AEM electrolyzer at the Port of Antwerp-Bruges in Belgium.
The project is the world’s first to utilize 250-kilowatt AEM electrolyzer stacks and, once commissioned, will be the first AEM system to demonstrate renewable hydrogen production in a high-throughput industrial port environment under real operating conditions.
The Port of Antwerp-Bruges system is Power to Hydrogen’s first commercial deployment of its M-Class hybrid AEM electrolyzers, designed to scale to 25-megawatts for high-demand industrial environments. Built on industrial 250-kilowatt stack modules, the system is engineered for dynamic operation and efficiency, including sub-50-millisecond response for renewable load-following and pressurized operation that reduces downstream compression needs and simplifies the balance of plant, the firm said.
“Renewable hydrogen is moving from pilots to infrastructure and the winners will be the companies that can manufacture, deliver, and operate at industrial scale,” said Paul Matter, CEO of Power to Hydrogen. “Bringing our system to the Port of Antwerp-Bruges is a tangible step toward financeable deployment: it proves we can build and ship industry-ready hardware, integrate into a live site, and commission a megawatt-class AEM platform designed for renewable load-following. This project is the blueprint for scaling deployments across Europe and empowers European industry to produce hydrogen feedstock domestically, from its own renewable power, in addition to importing it.”
