BGR Tech Limited has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with South Korea’s Elchemtech Company Limited to introduce proton exchange membrane water electrolysers (PEMWE) in India. As part of the collaboration, BGR Tech will integrate these electrolysers into its balance-of-plant (BoP) systems for green hydrogen projects across the country. Additionally, both companies are exploring the feasibility of manufacturing or assembling PEMWE stacks in India using Elchemtech’s technology to align with the “Make in India” initiative.
Elchemtech’s PEMWE features a single stack capacity of 240 normal cubic metres per hour or 1.25 MW. BGR Tech will incorporate its BoP components, including ultrapure water treatment, gas separation, hydrogen and oxygen purification, low-pressure storage, and allied facilities, within modular skid-based configurations.
In February 2025, BGR Tech Limited launched its 100 kW hydrogen purification system, delivering 99.999 per cent pure, fuel cell-grade hydrogen with a scalable modular design for high-pressure operations up to 30 bar, supporting applications in fuel cells, combustion engines, and industrial processes like steel annealing.
