Underutilised electrolyser factories threaten hydrogen cost reductions, says IEA
Underutilised factory capacity could drive up electrolyser manufacturing costs by up to four times, according to the IEA’s Global Hydrogen Review 2024.

PEM electrolyser solutions do not offer Bramble Energy the “same vision in terms of cost down and scale up” as AEM systems, according to the company’s CEO, Dr. Tom Mason.
“I don’t think that the argument of Western technology being superior to Chinese manufacturers applies to Hygreen Energy,” H2 View hears.
Horizon Fuel Cell Group announced plans last week (September 10) to build an electrolyser assembly gigafactory in India, under a new joint venture with Indify Fuel Cell.
China’s Hygreen Energy has launched its new anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolyser system and secured its first domestic customer.
Spain is supporting Chinese wind turbine producer Envision Energy’s plans to build a $1bn 5GW electrolyser factory in the southern European nation.
Enapter has received its largest single order of electrolyser systems in Europe, agreeing to supply Renco SpA with 4MW of AEM Nexus solutions.
Cipher Neutron President, CEO and co-founder, Gurjant Randhawa, tells H2 View why he believes his company’s AEM electrolyser will become important.
“When it comes to EU or national funding of projects, where taxpayer money is displayed, however, clear and strict criteria should be applied,” Hydrogen Europe’s CEO told H2 View.
The real challenge lies in transforming electrolyser manufacturing from an industrial batch process into a streamlined, scalable operation, writes Leanne Halliday, LRQA Territory Manager for Oceania.
