Solutions for
Generator Cooling

Featuring Proton® PEM


Advanced Water Electrolysis Technology

number one by nature™


On-Site Hydrogen Production Optimizes
Cooling Operations for Power Plant Generators
Nel Hydrogen Proton® PEM water electrolysers are designed to meet the
specific needs of power plant generator cooling. Our C, H and S Series units
provide fast response times and production flexibility, offering turnkey solutions
for generator cooling hydrogen supply. These state-of-the-art electrolysers
utilize a proton exchange membrane and electricity to separate water into pure
hydrogen and oxygen. Each generator produces ultra-high purity hydrogen gas
at 99.9995+% with output pressures up to 30 barg (435 psig) and at a dew point
of -65°C (-85°F) or better.

These compact electrolysers can be placed on the generator deck or any other
indoor, non-classified plant area. Their unique design allows the electrolysers
to contain virtually no stored hydrogen, even when generating hydrogen at
30 Nm3/h (1,140 scf/h) – meeting the daily hydrogen requirements of power
plants, no matter how large.

Nel Hydrogen’s water electrolysers provide reliable, safe, low-cost hydrogen


for generator cooling, giving power plant customers an attractive return on
investment while improving site security, safety, and personnel productivity.
