The University of Sheffield is set to produce more green hydrogen than any other UK research centre, thanks to new equipment that will support vital research to help decarbonise the aviation industry, the University stated on 16 August.
Sheffield’s Energy Institute is installing a new hydrogen electrolyser – technology that produces hydrogen by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen. The equipment will be used in research to develop and test new hydrogen-based sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs).
With the new PEM- based electrolyser from IMI Remosa, the university can produce nearly 140Nm3 (normal cubic metre) per hour of green hydrogen, with storage capacity of 1,450Nm3 – equivalent to the electricity needed to power 200 homes.
