Possible opportunity for medical oxygen production through electrolysis in Europe revealed
Green hydrogen, a clean and sustainable energy source, is set to make a significant impact on the global medical oxygen supply. Thousands of tonnes of oxygen per year could be produced on hydrogen electrolysers, making it a potential new source for medical oxygen.
This potential is particularly promising for large-scale green hydrogen production projects, which are on the rise. European energy companies such as OMV and TotalEnergies, as well as projects supported by the European Commission with nearly 1 billion euros, are planning to produce renewable hydrogen across the European Economic Area between 2025 and 2030. These initiatives are among the largest in Europe and could significantly boost the availability of medical oxygen.
For every tonne of hydrogen produced by electrolysis, about eight tonnes of oxygen are generated. This by-product could help improve the medical oxygen supply globally, potentially reducing the cost of healthcare.
