Upstream - hydrogen production

equilibrion

Equilibrion

Equilibrion brings a new perspective on how nuclear technology can deliver positive outcomes for the world. They have extensive expertise across the nuclear sector, from technology through to end use markets and how nuclear can deliver decarbonisation of industry, heat and transportation. As both a consultancy and project developer, Equilibrion is working with Hydrogen Valley to underpin how low-carbon hydrogen production can be increased in the region.

geopura

GeoPura

GeoPura was founded to help source enough clean energy to electrify the global economy and navigate the logistical issues of getting this energy to where it is needed. The GeoPura solution uses renewable energy, normally solar PV or wind, to create hydrogen and hydrogen-based zero emission fuels. This fuel is then transported to locations where a local generator converts it to electrical power. From start to finish the process is clean and carbon-free – the only by-product is pure water.
