ABOUT THE PROJECT

Hydrogen has the potential to reduce emissions across hard-to-abate sectors—from steel and ammonia production to ocean freight and long-duration energy storage. However, incumbent electrolyzer technology for generating hydrogen is currently too expensive and inefficient.

Hgen’s alkaline electrolysis technology achieves 20x higher power density than conventional systems, achieving higher-efficiency hydrogen production at lower cost. Hgen’s technology leverages a vertically integrated, modular design to enable mass production and cost efficiencies. Through a higher-efficiency and lower-cost architecture, Hgen enables cheaper $/kg clean hydrogen production.

Clean hydrogen can be used to reduce up to 25% of carbon emissions in hard-to-abate industries, and Hgen’s inventive, scalable technology will play an important role in reaching this goal.
