Sunfire to develop SOE with German grant
German electrolyser manufacturer receives €60mn grant to develop solid-oxide and alkaline electrolysis technologies
German electrolyser manufacturer Sunfire has received a €60mn ($68mn) grant from the German government as part of the H2Giga technology project. H2Giga is a state scheme aimed at accelerating the production of electrolysers. Established manufacturers, component suppliers, research institutions and universities are participating in the project. The funding will be used to accelerate the commercialisation of high-temperature solid-oxide electrolysers (SOEs) and to further develop alkaline electrolysers (AE) to operate at larger scales. SOE and anion-exchange-membrane electrolyser technologies are seen as the two main rivals to the more established proton-exchange-membrane and AE systems for th
