Abstract

Green hydrogen technology, aimed at revolutionizing clean hydrogen production, has recently garnered significant attention. However, the pursuit of cost-effective methods for obtaining clean hydrogen remains a substantial challenge for various industries. Anion exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE) has emerged as a promising solution, leveraging low-cost materials and high efficiency, thus attracting extensive interest from both researchers and industries. Yet, the adoption of AEMWE faces two major hurdles: its relative immaturity as a technology and the limited exploration of its durability and stability. Within the Production, Use, and Storage of Hydrogen (PUSH) Research Center, a collaborative effort involving Chalmers Technical University, Lund University, Umeå University, and Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE), we are dedicated to addressing the scientific and technical barriers currently hindering the seamless integration of hydrogen into sustainable energy systems. Our comprehensive research strategy encompasses every facet of hydrogen, including production, storage, distribution, and utilization, all working synergistically in harmony. One of the ongoing projects in this research center, conducted in cooperation with RISE, around enhancing the durability of components and devices through advanced testing techniques applied to AEMWE. This study present the results of a 2000-hour lifetime test and Accelerated Stress Testing (AST) conducted on a commercial Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA), showcasing the system's remarkable stability. It must be mentioned that in the next step, these results will be compared with lifetime test and AST from MEAs from other partners within PUSH Research Center.
