Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure include a bipolar plate assembly for an electrolysis cell (electrolyzer). An exemplary bipolar plate assembly for an electrolyzer includes an anode half plate having one or more intake headers, an anode-side flow field coupled to the one or more intake headers, and one or more outtake headers coupled to the anode-side flow field. The anode-side flow field is a dimple flow field having a series of dimples. The bipolar plate assembly further includes a cathode half plate coupled to the anode half plate, the cathode half plate having one or more outtake headers and a cathode-side flow field coupled to the one or more outtake headers. The cathode-side flow field is a land channel flow field having alternating lands and channels.
