The search for a sustainable and zero-carbon future has brought green hydrogen into the spotlight as a crucial component of the global energy transition, with its diverse applications spanning across various sectors — from industrial power to transportation.
Charting the course to a net zero world
Green hydrogen emerges as a cornerstone solution, projecting an annual abatement potential of 7 GT, contributing 20% to the essential reduction in CO2 emissions towards net-zero. With the expectation that green hydrogen will supply 10-15% of energy in a net-zero global economy, the commercial and environmental potential is immense.
The electrolyser holds a pivotal role in the green hydrogen paradigm, serving as the fundamental mechanism for water-to-hydrogen conversion. However, current electrolysis methods face formidable challenges: they are costly to operate, less efficient, and capital expenditure (CAPEX) intensive. This underscores the urgent need for advancements to propel the industry forward.
Enter Hysata, with a commitment to reshaping the economics of green hydrogen production. Through its innovative capillary-fed electrolyser (CFE) technology, Hysata offers a practical and efficient approach, aiming to contribute to the advancement of green hydrogen as a sustainable energy solution.
Unlocking the path to lowest cost green hydrogen
Hysata’s value proposition is twofold: efficiency and scalability. They are developing electrolysers to operate at 95% efficiency, a rate that can greatly reduce electricity consumption by 20% during production. Furthermore, Hysata’s streamlined system design, featuring a simple cell design and cost-effective stack, lowers CAPEX and optimizes operational costs. Overall, Hysata aims to reduce the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) by 25%.
Enhanced efficiency
- Building 95% higher heating value (HHV) system efficiency (41.5 kWh per kilogram), approximately 20% more efficient than traditional systems.
- Innovative electrolyte delivery system eliminates bubble formation.
- Generates around ten times less heat, reducing cooling needs and energy consumption.
Simplified Balance of Plant (BOP)
- Capillary-fed design with a conductive, sponge-like polymer separator filled with electrolyte.
- Electrodes contact the separator without being immersed in bulk liquid, reducing resistance.
- Uses about 20 times less liquid per megawatt, leading to smaller pumps, tanks, and lower energy requirements.
- Smaller system footprint compared to conventional electrolysers.
