Denmark – Topsoe has successfully conducted an inaugural demonstration test for its Solid Oxide Electrolyzer Cell (SOEC) electrolysis technology at the companyā€™s demonstration site in Frederikssund, Denmark.
The primary goal of Topsoe’s SOEC electrolysis technology is to enable the rapid decarbonization of the planet by providing a more efficient solution for hydrogen production compared to conventional electrolysis technologies. With a vision aligned with achieving net zero emissions by 2050, Topsoe aims to revolutionize the Power-to-X industry by introducing innovative and scalable decarbonization technology to the market.
The SOEC electrolysis technology developed by Topsoe operates by converting electricity into hydrogen through a high-temperature process. During the demonstration test held at the company’s site in Frederikssund, Topsoe evaluated the performance of 12 SOEC stacks comprising a total of 1,200 cells. The technology demonstrated exceptional stability and temperature control, showcasing its suitability for industrial-scale hydrogen production.
Accelerating energy transition
Topsoe’s demonstration of the SOEC electrolysis technology represents a significant step towards accelerating the energy transition. By providing a more efficient and reliable method for producing green hydrogen, the technology has the potential to drive widespread adoption of hydrogen as a clean energy source across various industries, including transportation, manufacturing, and power generation.
