Technology

Our proprietary hydrogen production technology delivers numerous advantages that make it a compelling solution for the future clean energy sector.

GreenH2 production from water using electricity

Electrolysis, powered by renewable electricity to produce clean hydrogen is seen as having the greatest long term impact on meeting decarbonization targets globally. VolteraH2’s proprietary sealed electrolysis technology delivers numerous advantages over existing state-of-the-art solutions.

Sealed Electrolysis

We’ve engineered a proprietary sealed electrolysis (SE) cell, an environment where the electrolysis process occurs. Our sealed cell offers superior energy efficiency, safety and cost-effectiveness, ensuring optimal operational parameters are maintained, especially with intermittent sources of electricity.

Advantages

Improves Energy Efficiency

By improving the electrical efficiency of the process and simplifying the balance-of-plant systems , the Sealed Electrolyzzer substantially lowesr the overall cost of producing hydrogen.

Eliminates the Need to Purify Water

In SE electrolyte and electrodes are sealed and separated from the water feedstock and the electrolysis reaction is supplied by water vapor crossing interfaces. This allows SE to work with low quality water feedstock, even seawater, which has been considered a “holy grail” in the field.

SE can also be supplied with steam and operate at ~150 o C to take advantage of thermodynamic, kinetic and conductivity advantages at higher temperatures.

Eliminates Use Of Expensive And Rare Metals

Unlike traditional systems, SE doesn’t rely on Platinum Group Metals (PGMs), or other rare materials. Our sealed design protects metal components from corrosive KOH, permitting construction from affordable stainless steel.

Produces Pressurized Hydrogen

Our electrolysis system operates under pressure, generating hydrogen that is already compressed. This reduces the need for hydrogen compression, saving energy and further reducing costs.
