Seawater Electrolysis: Challenges and Opportunities

29 October 2025 Online All Events

Hydrogen is rapidly becoming a foundation of the global green energy transition, offering a clean fuel to decarbonize sectors like heavy industry, aviation, and shipping. Green Hydrogen, produced using renewable electricity, is gaining traction worldwide. However, freshwater resources needed for traditional electrolysis are increasingly scarce. This makes seawater, covering over 96% of the Earth’s water, a highly attractive and abundant alternative for hydrogen production. 

On 29 October at 16:00 CET, join the Seawater Electrolysis: Challenges and Opportunities Webinar, bringing together experts from academia, industrial electrolyser manufacturers, and hydrogen consumers to explore the requirements, hurdles, and pathways shaping the future of seawater electrolysis. 

The discussion will combine diverse perspectives across the hydrogen value chain, providing a comprehensive view of both technological innovation and real-world application. 

Speakers: 

  • Alessandro Monteverde – Associate Professor, Polytechnic University of Turin 
  • Wilhelm Schünemann – Sales & Partner Manager, Enapter
  • Lourenço de Almeida e Silva – Business Development Manager, Galp

Panel discussion with all speakers, joined by Martin Hogarth from INEOS.

Moderators:

Kostadin Petrov – HyLab

Yagya Regmi – Manchester Metropolitan University

Key themes: 

  • Advances in systems tolerant to impure water feeds 
  • Water purity and performance challenges in AEM electrolysis 
  • Pathways toward large-scale seawater electrolysis
