High-efficiency 1 MW Dynamic Electrolyser Unit for cost-efficient production of PtX-based green methanol
▶Summary
HIFIPower-to-X (PtX) converts water and intermittent renewable energy to high-value products. As electricity constitutes app. 80% ofthe P2X product cost, high conversion efficiency is critical. However, the current best solution, Solid Oxide Electrolysis (SOE)technology has a limited lifetime and dynamic capabilities are a current barrier to large-scale commercialization. Dynelectroprovides a solution using a novel SOE technology with a mix of alternating (AC) and direct current (DC), called AC:DC. Thetechnology can accommodate fluctuating green power, and temperature variation and thus increase the lifetime of SOE stacksfrom 2 to 10 years.We seek to develop, construct, and field test a 1-Megawatt unit using this revolutionary AC:DC method andproduce 100 tons of green H2 during the project period. We will also deliver a startup, shutdown and operation manual for scale-up.This achievement is essential for Dynelectro to realize its ambitious plans for upscaling and capitalize on the projected market growth, positioning the project as a key contributor to the energy transition and the advancement of renewable low-carbon hydrogen production.
