electrolyzer
Water-splitting device
An electrolyzer is a device that uses electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen through electrolysis.
The technology is central to producing "green hydrogen" when powered by renewable energy: The plant's electrolyzers run on wind power.
Industrial electrolyzers range from small units to massive installations for fuel production.
