Direct production of highly pressurised hydrogen from electrolytic water splitting can allow saving relevant amounts of energy compared to down-stream gas compression. The aim of this project is to develop a novel polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyser able to produce hydrogen at very high pressure (200 bar) thus reducing the post-compression energy consumption. Another goal is to develop a cost-effective technology allowing to achieve large-scale application of PEM electrolysers. A significant reduction of capital costs is achieved by critical raw materials minimisation, developing cheap coated bipolar plates and operating the electrolyser at a high production rate while assuring high efficiency (about 80% vs. HHV) and safe operation. ADVANCEPEM aims at developing a set of breakthrough solutions at materials, stack and system levels to increase hydrogen pressure to 200 bar and current density to 5 A cm-2 for the base load, while keeping the nominal energy consumption.

与下游气体压缩相比，通过电解水分解直接生产高压氢气可以节省相应数量的能源。该项目的目标是开发一种新型聚合物电解质膜（PEM）电解槽，能够在非常高的压力（200巴）下产生氢气，从而减少压缩后的能量消耗。另一个目标是开发一种具有成本效益的技术，使PEM电解槽能够大规模应用。通过最大限度地减少关键原材料、开发廉价的涂层双极板和以高生产率运行电解槽，同时确保高效率（约80% vs. HHV）和安全运行，显著降低了资本成本。ADVANCEPEM的目标是在材料、堆和系统层面开发一套突破性的解决方案，在保持标称能耗的同时，将基本负载的氢气压力提高到200 bar，电流密度提高到5 a cm-2。
