In December 2025, REDHy reached Milestone 16 with the completion of a Preliminary Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of its hydrogen electrolyser system. The study was led by Industrie De Nora, with data collection supported by project partners DLR, CNRS, UPV, CNR, and CENMAT.
The LCA evaluates the environmental performance of REDHy technology across its entire life cycle, from material sourcing and manufacturing to operation. By analyzing 1 kg of hydrogen produced, the assessment identifies the main environmental impact drivers and highlights opportunities for improvement.
This early-stage analysis provides partners with key insights into materials, manufacturing processes, and operational performance, supporting more sustainable design decisions. It also contributes to the emerging research on green hydrogen technologies, helping REDHy advance towards an environmentally responsible solution for hydrogen production.
