How an electrolyzer works
Plug Power, Woodbine GA: eight 5 MW PEM electrolyzers · 40 MW · up to 15 t of liquid hydrogen a day
Electricity pulls water apart across a thin membrane: hydrogen on one side, oxygen on the other. The hydrogen is chilled to a liquid and trucked out. Follow one day at the plant. Every number comes from one model.
