Taoyuan City-based Kaori Heat Treatment Co., Ltd. is a leading global brazed plate heat exchanger manufacturer. The Taiwanese company already entered the hydrogen industry in 2008 and has been specialised in H2 generation reactors, purification and power generation system integration since then.
“Moving to electrolysis, Enapter’s AEM technology was the first choice for its flexibility, friendly interface and stability,” says Victor Hsu, Kaori Ltd.’s Director of Advanced Energy division.
The National Formosa University in central Taiwan hosts one of their first AEM Electrolyser projects. The purpose of the project is to pilot and demonstrate the utilisation of renewable energy, green hydrogen and fuel cell power generation to support the future scale-up of backup and distributed power generation applications.
Supplied by excess renewables from a 9kW PV system and 3kW of wind power, an AEM Electrolyser system produces onsite green hydrogen once the battery as a short-term storage is fully loaded. An Enapter dryer ensures fuel cell grade H2 purity of 99.999%.
The produced hydrogen is then stored at the electrolyser’s outlet pressure of up to 35 bar and can be converted back into electricity using a 5kW fuel cell.
The system can be controlled via local HMI but also remotely.
“All the modules and systems were assembled and set up within one week to their full functioning,” adds Victor Hsu.
