Powered by fully renewable electricity derived from a 20 kW wind turbine, a Siemens demonstrator produces H 2 , using a proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolyzer, to form around 30 kg NH 3 daily. This has the advantage that existing H-B plants can be transitioned to this new hydrogen supply without major disruption or mothballing.
