Abstract

Producing green hydrogen by electrolysis is a goal at European and international level. But hydrogen production by water electrolysis is currently more expensive respect the steam methane reforming. Based on our previous studies, extra revenues in order to reduce the production costs could be obtained by considering the co-produced oxygen.
