ITM Power releases 20 MW core electrolysis process module POSEIDON ITM Power has released POSEIDON , the company ’ s new 20 MW core electrolysis process module . Engineered by ITM incorporating realworld lessons learned from commercial projects , this standardised module with optimised footprint is replicable for scaling up into large-scale plants .
POSEIDON consists of skidmounted units , which can be pre-fabricated and pre-tested . This reduces deployment timelines and construction costs , and de-risks projects .
The module is based on ITM ’ s stack technology , is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation , and can be efficiently integrated into the balance of plant .
MHI reports successful testing of its liquid hydrogen pump Mitsubishi Heavy Industries ( MHI ) has reported that its 90 MPa Class liquid hydrogen ( LH2 ) pump has successfully operated for 250 hours in a long-term durability test . The test began in April 2023 at FirstElement Fuel ’ s Hydrogen Distribution Hub in Livermore , CA , and will continue into next year .
The test involved 300 run cycles of the pump resulting in 30 tons of liquid hydrogen transfer . The hydrogen transferred was used to refuel hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in California , resulting in zero-emissions transportation . Inspection of the pump revealed that all internal pump components are still in excellent condition , confirming the robustness and longevity of the pump .
The MHI LH2 pump has consistently and reliably achieved an output of 160 kg / h at a discharge pressure of 90 MPa . The pump design also ensures that hydrogen loss due to boiloff is negligible , thus enhancing the economics of the hydrogen refueling stations . www . PRUSS . de
