Abstract

High-pressure proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis for hydrogen production is a crucial method to achieve low energy consumption, high efficiency, minimal pollution, and seamless integration with storage systems. Despite its potential, the current application of high-pressure PEM water electrolysis faces several challenges. This paper provides a concise analysis of the research advancements in high-pressure PEM water electrolysis for hydrogen production, focusing on technical bottlenecks within high-pressure devices. It explores key issues such as gas cross-permeability, membrane degradation, membrane shedding, and hydrogen embrittlement encountered during high-pressure PEM water electrolysis for hydrogen production. Furthermore, this paper summarizes the latest research directions and proposed solutions based on existing findings, aiming to offer effective references for enhancing the safety, scalability, and industrial application of high-pressure PEM water electrolysis technology.
