Honeywell has developed a new catalyst-coated membrane (CCM) technology for the production of green hydrogen, which will get further testing with electrolyser manufacturers. The CCM for proton exchange membrane electrolysers and anion exchange membrane electrolysers is the main focus of the new Honey well technology. Reportedly, Honey well’s new CCMs have been shown in lab testing to enable higher electrolyser efficiency and higher electric current density, enabled by a breakthrough proprietary high ionic conductivity membrane and high activity catalyst. As a result, the cost of the electrolyser stack is expected to drop by 25 per cent.
