Battolyser Systems and VDL Hydrogen Systems merge to develop the first fully flexible industrial electrolyser

Battolyser Systems and VDL Hydrogen Systems have agreed to merge their activities into a single company to bring the first fully flexible electrolyser for large-scale industrial applications to market. The merged company will develop and market the electrolyser with VDL Groep as stack manufacturing partner. Pilot projects are ongoing with industrial customers, followed by full scale demonstrations and commercial ramp-up thereafter.

The cost of green hydrogen remains too high for mass adoption, and further innovation and scale is needed to unlock the hydrogen economy. Both VDL Hydrogen Systems and Battolyser Systems are developing a novel pressurized alkaline electrolyser, with VDL Hydrogen Systems focusing on high capacity and Battolyser Systems on flexibility to deliver the lowest cost hydrogen. A joining of forces will significantly improve product competitiveness and the ability to deliver at scale to industries such as e-fuels, steel and grid applications.
