We’re creating a practical hydrogen economy with our novel business model.
The principal customers for our first commercial applications are those who currently produce hydrogen as a by-product of their chlorine production process. In many cases, this hydrogen by-product is simply flared off. Typically, these customers include chemical companies and power generators who do not have a current use for their hydrogen by-product.
Our vision is to take alkaline fuel cells to where there is excess hydrogen supply and to produce zero emission electricity from the hydrogen. For example, the chlor-alkali industry. Not only does this strategy have the potential to produce revenues for ourselves, and our customers, it could also attract carbon credits.
The amounts of available waste hydrogen in the global chlor-alkali industry could support in excess of 3,000 MW per annum of generating capacity, representing a potential market of £2 billion.
Our first customer for this application is Akzo Nobel: read more about our partnership.
