RE Hydrogen Information

Opportunity and Innovation: RE Hydrogen is offering two breakthrough innovations. Firstly, an advanced electrolyser for hydrogen production at £3.6/kg, against current cost of £11/kg, overcoming the challenges of hydrogen economy. Secondly a gas compressor to pressurise gas up to 350bar in a single stage from atmospheric pressure, at 1/3rd price, 10 times longer life, at 50% greater efficiency. One customer said “The Honda Civic GX runs on a tank of CNG, compressed to 3,600 psi. There could be a fantastic market for your home compressor to do this - particularly in Southern California. An efficient low-cost home compressor would be something I would welcome here too”. The compressor can upgrade biogas into 99% biomethane to sell into the gas grid and separate & capture CO2 during gas compression. Markets: The combination of the electrolyser and compressor will unlock £20 billion/year global hydrogen market. 1st Market: Onsite Production Hydrogen and Oxygen: £500 million/ year-UK. 2nd Market: Gas compression: £1billion/year-UK. Biomethane gas upgrading=£250 million UK. 3rd Market: Smart Grid and Energy Storage: currently £360 million/year-UK, up to £1 billion/ year by 2015-UK.
