Industrial-scale PEM electrolysis technology used in the Refhyne plant to produce hydrogen from water using electricity. This is described as the world's first industrial-scale application of this technology.

Hydrogen produced using nuclear power, distinct from "green hydrogen" which is powered by renewable energy. It is also referred to as purple or red hydrogen.

Crucial components for storing hydrogen, either as compressed gas or supercooled liquid, which are necessary for powering hydrogen-based vessels.

A demonstration project to produce pink hydrogen using a PEM electrolyzer powered by nuclear electricity at Exelon Generation's Nine Mile Point nuclear facility. The hydrogen will be used for the plant's turbine cooling and chemistry control, with potential for broader industrial applications.

Plug Power's proprietary proton exchange membrane electrolyzer technology used to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen. The Georgia plant features eight 5-MW units as the core production technology.
