Many solid-state devices, especially those requiring anion conduction, often add a supporting electrolyte to enable efficient operation. The prototypical case is that of anion-exchange-membrane water electrolyzers (AEMWEs), where addition an alkali metal solution improves performance. However, the specific mechanism this performance improvement currently unknown. This work investigates function...

Alkaline electrolyzers are the most widespread technology due to their maturity, low cost, and large capacity in generating hydrogen. However, compared proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers, they request use of potassium hydroxide (KOH) or sodium (NaOH) since electrolyte relies on a liquid solution. For this reason, performances alkaline governed by concentration operating temperature. D...

Austria is committed to the net-zero climate goal along with European Union. This requires all sectors be decarbonized. Hereby, hydrogen plays a vital role as stated in national strategy. A report commissioned by Austrian government predicts minimum demand of 16 TWh per year 2040. Besides imports, domestic production can ensure supply. Hence, this study analyses levelized cost for an off-grid p...

Green hydrogen produced by water electrolysis is one of the most promising technologies to realize efficient utilization intermittent renewable energy and decarbonizing future. Among various technologies, emerging anion-exchange membrane (AEMWE) shows potential for producing green at a competitive price. In this review, we demonstrate comprehensive introduction AEMWE including advanced electrod...
