Power to Hydrogen
Power to Hydrogen is accelerating the transition to a clean energy future by improving access to and affordability of renewably-derived green hydrogen and energy storage. With Clean Energy Bridge, an efficient and cost-effective reversible fuel cell, Power to Hydrogen generates hydrogen on-site and produces power when needed most, during peak usage and outages. Based on a patented technology, Clean Energy Bridge functions efficiently as both an electrolyzer and a fuel cell, allowing a single unit to offer multiple high value products and services including pressurized hydrogen fuel, peak shaving and backup power.
Electro-Active Technologies Inc. is developing a modular system to convert food waste and renewable electricity into affordable, renewable hydrogen. The system can be deployed onsite or in a decentralized fashion as a local, urban solution. This will enable companies and communities to reinvest their waste for added value and improved sustainability.
Opus 12’s device converts CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels that are cost-competitive with conventional products. It bolts onto any source of CO2, and uses only water and electricity as inputs. Their core technology is the membrane electrode assembly (MEA), a drop-in component to a polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) reactor. To produce the full CO2 electrolyzer system, the novel MEA is integrated into existing reactor designs of their manufacturing partner, a US-based world leader in PEM electrolysis. Scale-up of the Opus 12 product line has begun with a dishwasher-size commercial unit and they are scaling to industrial modules (tons/day/unit CO2 consumption) in 2022.
Combined Energies is focused on the design, manufacturing, and sales of specialty power electronics for renewable power generation, energy storage, and electric vehicle markets. Initially designed for fuel cell applications, their patented 10kW DC-to-DC Converter designs provide improved functionality, higher efficiency, smaller footprint, and lower cost than available alternatives.
