US funding granted to enhance platinum-based hydrogen electrolyser development

The US Department of Defense has granted Nel Hydrogen $5.6-million in funding for a project aimed at accelerating advanced electrolyser stack development to enable low-cost hydrogen storage and resiliency. The 19-month project is set to advance PEM electrolyser development to reduce both operating and capital costs. Mining Weekly can report that PEM electrolysers being platinum-based create demand pull for South Africa’s platinum group metals.
