Small Footprint with Big Results

Hydrogen has been gaining traction as the ultimate replacement for fossil fuels. Its usefulness as a clean energy carrier, especially in its liquid form illustrates its widespread benefits across all sectors. These benefits and advantages can be utilized quicker for certain markets through light-scale hydrogen systems, which will enable the mass adoption of hydrogen without geographical limitations. These continued advancements in hydrogen technology will redefine the way we use energy.

Hydrogen is naturally found in its gaseous state but is being recognized as more beneficial in its liquid state. Liquefaction is the process of converting gaseous hydrogen to its liquid form. Liquefaction creates a denser form of hydrogen, increasing the efficiency of its usage as fuel. This increased energy density enables more molecular hydrogen to fit within a given space, allowing for more energy to be stored and transported wherever it is needed. Enhanced purification is also a natural byproduct of the liquefaction process.

Creating light-scale hydrogen systems poses significant benefits to both the hydrogen and renewable energy industry. The main advantage exists in portability and ease of integration, as small-scale systems will be accessible on-demand and in relatively remote areas that would otherwise be nonviable for larger systems. The ease of spread and integration will lead to quicker adoption of hydrogen systems, which allows for a faster and easier global transition to green energy. The renewable energy industry also benefits from the on-site applicability of this technology, as they can use the power generated from their systems to directly fuel hydrogen units for power storage.

GenH2 leads the way in developing hydrogen infrastructure solutions through light-scale liquefaction, controlled storage and transfer systems. Our newest innovation, the LS20, liquefies and stores hydrogen within a mobile trailer, allowing for a portable system that can provide the most effective form of hydrogen power wherever it is needed, making the use of liquid hydrogen (LH2) practical in the consumer and commercial sectors. It also functions as the predecessor to a 1-Tonne-Per-Day system (1TPD), which can produce up to a metric ton (1,000 kg) of LH2 every day.

Liquefying and storing hydrogen on a small-scale will accelerate our transition to eco-friendly renewable fuels, which will result in a cleaner and brighter future. GenH2 has already made strides toward implementing light-scale liquid hydrogen infrastructure with the LS20 Mobile Liquid Hydrogen System.
