Electrolysis will move up to scale

The hydrogen council states that the annual demand for

hydrogen could increase tenfold by 2050. This will require

centralized gigawatt industrial production facilities that

leverage economies of scale. Hundreds of megawatts or

gigawatts of power per plant pose different challenges com

pared to existing installations. With our wealth of experi

ence in industrial electrolysis, ABB is the perfect partner to

expand the boundaries of H₂ production.

Decades of experience in chemical production

ABB has supplied more than 750 rectifier projects for

chemical plants since 1958 – a successful track record

for our clients to benefit from as they scale up their

H₂ production.

• 110+ DC power supplies for hydrogen production up to

140 MW per plant

• 625+ DC power supplies for chlorine applications2 up to

350 MW per plant

Customer satisfaction around the globe

For chemical industries alone ABB has provided DC supplies

in more than 60 countries. We can deliver the perfect fit for

any project regardless of extreme ambient conditions or

specific local regulations.
