Innovation is crucial to reduce cost and improve the performance of the electrolyser. The ultimate goals are to: 1) reduce cost by standardising and simplifying manufacturing and design to allow for industrialisation and scale-up; 2) improve efficiency to reduce the amount of electricity required to produce one unit of hydrogen; and 3) increase durability to extend the equipment lifetime and spread the cost of the electrolyser facility over a larger hydrogen production volume. Governments can support innovation in electrolysers by issuing clear long-term signals that support policy on: Facilitating investment in production, logistics and utilisation of green hydrogen, including all areas that will help this low-carbon energy carrier to become competitive; technology cost and performance improvements, material supply, business models and trading using common standards and certifications. Establishing regulations and design markets that support investments in innovation and scale-up the production of green hydrogen. This includes approaches such as setting manufacturing or deployment targets, tax incentives, mandatory quotas in hard to decarbonise sectors and other de-risking mechanisms, while enabling new business models that can guarantee predictable revenues for the private sector to invest at scale. Supporting research, development and demonstration (RD&D) to: reduce the use of iridium and platinum in the manufacture of PEM electrolysers; transition all alkaline units to be platinum- and cobalt-free; and, in general, mandate reduced scarce materials utilisation as a condition for manufacturing scale-up. Fostering coordination and common goals along the hydrogen value chain, across borders, across relevant sectors and between stakeholders. 13PDF Image | GREEN HYDROGEN SCALING UP ELECTROLYSERS
