Hydrogen stored and managed no differently than diesel.
Hydrogen storage logistics are expensive and complex. Currently, hydrogen is predominantly stored and managed at high pressure or liquified at very cold temperatures that require specialized equipment. Ayrton’s system stores hydrogen as a room temperature and pressure liquid that can be stored in existing infrastructure including tanks, trucks, and pipelines. Our solution is 20-50 per cent lower cost than conventional methods (compression/liquification) and makes managing hydrogen logistics as easy as managing diesel.
Our system creates no greenhouse gas emissions and will help drive adoption for distributed hydrogen use, such as energy storage and backup energy generation for utilities, commercial sites, hospitals, data centers, and remote work sites. Our system also reduces the cost of H2 refueling infrastructure to help increase H2 use for heavy duty vehicles.
Why our venture should be considered one of Canada’s 50 most investible cleantech companies:
Hydrogen is the next clean fuel to be used in the energy transition towards Canada reaching its net zero goals, but the costs and complexity of hydrogen storage is a bottleneck to widespread adoption. Ayrton's technology solves this challenge and enables hydrogen to be safely, cost-effectively, and easily distributed for broad adoption beyond just industrial applications.
