Proton OnSite, the world leader in Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) water electrolyser technology, announced today the commercial launch of the one and two Megawatt (MW) M Series PEM Hydrogen Generation systems.
At the 2MW level, the new M Series provides a 13 times increase in hydrogen production compared to other commercial PEM systems. In combination with greater production capacity, the M Series reduces the capital cost per kW of producing hydrogen by over 50%.
The growth of renewable energy has created a need for large-scale energy storage. The M Series addresses this by offering scalable cost effective conversion of excess, stranded or curtailed power to hydrogen offering a carbon-free solution for the industrial scale storage of energy for use in chemical processes, fuel cell vehicles, biogas production and natural gas pipeline injection.
“Proton OnSite is the only PEM electrolyser producer with well over 2,000 systems installed in more than 75 countries over the last 18 years,” said Robert Friedland, President and CEO of Proton OnSite. “It’s important to understand that a functioning PEM electrolyser is not overly complicated to build, but the real challenge comes in making systems rugged and reliable for real industry applications. Proton is the only PEM electrolyser company that has the installed base, experience and time in the market. This experience has been a key leverage point for us in introducing this system.”
