The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office (HFTO) and the Hydrogen from Next-generation Electrolyzers of Water (H2NEW) consortium will host the High-Temperature Electrolysis Manufacturing workshop on March 8–9, 2022 in support of the Hydrogen Energy Earthshot to reduce the cost of hydrogen by 80% and hydrogen provisions established under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
This workshop will bring together leading high-temperature electrolysis (HTE) manufacturing experts from industry, national laboratories, and academia to present high-volume manufacturing status, barriers and opportunities, electrolysis stack manufacturing costs and techno-economic analysis, and shared learnings for achieving high volume stack, component, and system manufacturing.
In addition, there will be in-depth discussions on a range of topics, including critical HTE manufacturing processes, quality assurance/quality control, advanced manufacturing techniques, supply chain, scaling and throughput, and component and stack manufacturing. This workshop will emphasize developing advanced HTE stack manufacturing technologies to achieve $2/kg hydrogen by 2026 and paving the way toward meeting the Hydrogen Shot goal of $1 per 1 kilogram in one decade.
