The research and innovation project “Grid Integrated Multi Megawatt High Pressure
Alkaline Electrolysers for Energy Applications“ (ELYntegration) focuses on the design and
engineering of a robust, flexible, efficient and cost-competitive single stack multi megawatt high
pressure alkaline water electrolyser.
The main purpose of the present study consists to analyse different scenarios involving
the exploitation of large scale alkaline high-pressure electrolysers for the centralized production
of H2 wherein said electrolysers are integrated in the electric grids and powered using at least
partly renewable electricity.
The business case presented and analyzed by this study deals with the operation of a
centralized hydrogen production plant based on a multimegawatt alkaline electrolyze directly
connected and powered on-grid.
