Honeywell announced that it has developed new catalyst-coated membrane technology for Green Hydrogen production and will further test the technology with electrolyzer manufacturers. Green Hydrogen, which is produced using an electrolyzer powered by renewable electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen, is expected to play an important role in the energy transition in coming decades with overall hydrogen demand expected to grow 5-7x over the next 30 years according to the Hydrogen Council. The new Honeywell technology focuses on CCMs for Proton Exchange Membrane electrolyzers and Anion Exchange Membrane electrolyzers.Honeywell’s latest CCMs have been shown in lab testing to enable higher electrolyzer efficiency and higher electric current density enabled by a breakthrough proprietary high ionic conductivity membrane and high activity catalyst. This is projected to provide a 25% reduction in electrolyzer stack cost1.Honeywell’s Green Hydrogen program leverages decades of R&D and manufacturing experience in developing and manufacturing market-leading membranes and catalysts for gas processing, refining, steel, and petrochemical industries, as well as the experience in the most recent development of novel membranes for battery and power applications.
