Green hydrogen has emerged as a high potential commodity within the energy industry. Given its low environmental impact, it is intended to serve as a key instrument to achieve the net zero target in the coming years. Both policy and technological innovation are advancing rapidly to meet the growing demand for this vital resource. However, increasing the capacity of green hydrogen plants involves many obstacles. Structural rigidity and low production capacity are considered major threats towards a broader industrial integration. In this respect, modular design represents a promising strategy to cope with the growing complexity of hydrogen facilities. It aims to enhance engineering architecture by allowing a high degree of flexibility and adaptability, enabling future stations to serve a wide spectrum of applications. Accordingly, this paper illustrates a modularization approach of a medium power range green hydrogen station. It describes a systematic methodology relying on the deployment of Dependency Structure Matrix (DSM). The study demonstrates that applying the DSM approach can reduce structural complexity by 33.8% and improve Clustering Efficiency to 66,9 %, which provides a solid basis for architectural innovation of future hydrogen production plants.
