Title:
Green Hydrogen at Scale
Agreement Number:
1029017
Agreement Value:
$696,135.88
Agreement Date:
Mar 12, 2025 - Mar 31, 2025
Description:
Hydrogen Optimized and SDTC announce the funding of the “Green Hydrogen At Scale” Project which will demonstrate novel disruptive technology that integrates High Current Rectifiers with high current water electrolyzers to achieve a target cost of green hydrogen of $US 1/kg. Achieving this cost target should enable many 100s of Mega tonnes CO2 reduction.
“Hydrogen Optimized’s RuggedCell water electrolysis technology is poised to revolutionize the economics of green hydrogen production using renewable electricity”, said Andrew T.B. Stuart President and CEO of Hydrogen Optimized. “Economic green hydrogen production will enable renewable energy to be utilized in transportation, industrial, utility, and chemical applications which currently require fossil energy.”
This project will demonstrate the cost-effective high current hydrogen production process so that the technology may be immediately commercialized at 100’s of MW’s in capacity. A global commercialization strategy will be implemented with Hydrogen Optimized's project partner ABB.
