Bosch is scaling green hydrogen production with its advanced electrolysis technology and comprehensive services, paving the way for a sustainable and climate-neutral energy economy. Green hydrogen, generated through electrolysis using renewable energy sources like solar, water, and wind power, serves as a versatile energy carrier, process gas, and storage medium.
Bosch PEM Electrolysis Stack: The Core of Hydrogen Production
At the heart of Bosch’s hydrogen production solution is the PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) electrolysis stack. Manufactured using automated and industrialized series production processes, the stack is globally scalable and delivers the high quality associated with the Bosch brand. Key benefits of the Bosch PEM electrolysis stack include:
- High power density and H2 output pressure (>30 bar)
- Maximum flexibility and minimum space requirements
- High operational reliability and safety
- Production of up to 23 kg of hydrogen per hour (1.25 MW power input)
The stack’s high output pressure eliminates the need for expensive auxiliary units in many use cases, making it an ideal choice for industrial-scale applications.
Wide Range of Applications for Bosch Electrolysis Components
- Large electrolysis plants: Centralized, high-volume hydrogen production with capacities of several 100 MW. Suitable for industrial applications, ammonia and methanol production, the chemical industry, and regions utilizing renewable energy to produce and export hydrogen and its derivatives.
- Local and decentralized production: Scalable 1-10 MW plants, integrating the PEM stack into containerized solutions for on-site hydrogen demand. Ideal for production plants covering their hydrogen needs for process gas or energy supply, hydrogen refueling stations producing H2 on-site, and converting energy from wind or solar parks into storable and transportable hydrogen.
