Purpose-driven: "We shape the new era"

tk-play

thyssenkrupp nucera is shaping the new era by delivering innovative products and plants that enable green hydrogen production and CO2 footprint reduction. Their 20 MW Alkaline Water Electrolysis (AWE) module - scalum® - provides a cost-efficient, modular approach for large-scale production of sustainable chemicals like ammonia and methanol, as well as green steel. AWE offers the vital components of speed and scale, is efficient and safe, and supports comprehensive sector coupling. Additionally, it is well-suited for fluctuating renewable power input and integration into Power-to-X (PtX) applications.

Alkaline water electrolysis works by passing an electric current through water containing a dissolved electrolyte to separate water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen gases. This process is highly efficient and scalable, making it ideal for producing large volumes of green hydrogen necessary for various industrial applications. When powered by renewable sources, this method ensures the production of carbon-free green hydrogen.
