Electrolysis chlorine production

We have a 70 m3/h treatment plant located on an island and would like to produce chlorine on site via electrolysis Do you have any feedback on electrolysis in terms of pros and cons, operating constraints and costs, formation of by-products, risk of explosions (H2), salt refining, etc.

The choice of facility will depend on government regulations whether you are in North America or Europe to eliminate the risk of explosion. If in the US, for example, there is a trade association website with a lot of useful information. https://www.chlorineinstitute.org/stewardship/chlorine/chlorine-manufacture/
