Abstract

Hydrogen can be produced from water electrolysis which can operate at atmospheric pressure or high pressure. Today’s industry including vehicle one, devotes efforts to produce high pressure hydrogen by using pressurized electrolyser. The purpose of this work is to estimate the ideal electrical energy needed for high pressure hydrogen under high pressure water electrolysis conditions. Calculations are based on the estimation of the enthalpy and free Gibbs energy of water electrolysis at various pressures and temperatures, referring to both the work of LeRoy & Onda.
