Bloom Energy and Idaho National Laboratory to test use of nuclear generation to power solid-oxide electrolyzer for H2 production

Green Car Congress

Bloom Energy announced an agreement with Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to test the use of nuclear energy to produce clean hydrogen through Bloom Energy’s solid-oxide, high-temperature electrolyzer. First announced in July 2020, Bloom Energy’s electrolyzer converts water (or steam) into hydrogen and oxygen.

Co-Electrolysis of CO2 and H2O for the Production of Liquid Fuels

Green Car Congress

In one of the papers presented at the May conference, Carl Stoots from the Idaho National Laboratory noted that while it is possible to produce syngas by separately electrolyzing steam and CO 2 , there are. significant advantages to co-electrolysis, including lower cell resistance and the reduced possibility of further reduction of CO to C.
