Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carrier (LOHC) for Secure, Efficient, and User Friendly Hydrogen Storage and Transportation Technology$1.1Mvalue2024start2027end

This project is mostly related to technology demonstration.

CIIP Singapore - IHSE: Integration of LOHC Hydrogenation System with Electrolyzer$600Kvalue2026start2028end

The goal of the project work with Sungreen H2 is focused on the operational integration (“handshake”) of Ayrton’s H-Cell system with SungreenH2’s electrolyser system. Ayrton’s e-LOHC system is designed to take in hydrogen direct from an electolyser into our H-Cell unit to be chemically bound to our LOHC carrier oil. When integrated with an electyolyser the hydrogen does not require drying or to be pressurized within the electrolyser. By optimizing this integration, we believe we can improve the electrical efficiency of the electrolyser by up to 20%.

CIIP Taiwan - DHS - Development of hydrogenation systems for pilot deployment$596Kvalue2026start2028end

The goal of the project work with hiPower Hydrogen Technology is focused on the development of Ayrton’s hydrogenation or H-Cell system, specifically in regards to the balance of plants (BoP) design, procurement, assembly and validation. Ayrton’s H-Cell system is designed to store hydrogen using Ayrton's proprietary H-Cell™ electrochemical reactor system and e-LOHC™ (electrochemical liquid organic hydrogen carrier).

Junior Electrical Engineer for Off Grid Energy/EV Charging System Development$30.0Kvalue2022start2022end

Current EV charging solutions face significant future challenges and adding residential capacity for EV charging can be expensive. ENMAX and EPCOR outlined in a 2020 report that as few as three 40 Amp EV chargers on a single residential transformer could result in local system faults and black/brown -outs. We are developing an off grid, level 2, EV charging and energy storage system. The system is powered by a net-zero emission energy source and utilizes cloud-based software to remotely monitor and manage your charging while providing a fully automated servicing system for users. The jr elect
