Meet the Leading Hydrogen Innovators:
Compact Syngas Solutions: We provide modular gasification technology for producing power, heat, hydrogen, and carbon credits.
Hydrologiq: We simplify the hydrogen supply chain into easily deployable solutions.
ULEMCo: We offer a retrofit solution using a zero-carbon hybrid drivetrain with a hydrogen combustion engine and battery-electric system.
Wild Hydrogen: We convert unprocessed feedstock into hydrogen-rich syngas using a carbon-negative-ready gasification method.
HyWaves: We develop power electronics to boost green hydrogen production and cut costs in solar-to-hydrogen plants.
Nium: We use nanotechnology to synthesise Clean Ammonia on demand for a cleaner future in energy, food, and fuel.
The First Element Group: We generate Green H2 from water and renewable electricity, offering a drop-in replacement for LPG canisters with smart sensors and storage solutions.
Parallel Carbon: We provide affordable direct air carbon capture and zero-carbon hydrogen technologies.
DefProc Engineering: We offer a smart gas pressure sensor that detects low-pressure gas supply and activates a shut-off valve for safety.
Genuine H2: We revolutionise energy markets with innovative hydrogen production from sea/impure water and solid-state dry storage technologies.
This event promises to be an exciting opportunity to engage with pioneering hydrogen innovators and explore the future of sustainable energy solutions.
More on the programme:
Sustainable Ventures, in partnership with The Centre for Process Innovation (CPI) and with funding from The Hydrogen Innovation Initiative, is delivering a government-supported hydrogen accelerator programme in the North West. Centred on an Innovation Challenge, the programme will bring together innovations in hydrogen technology and established businesses to cultivate mutually beneficial relationships that may lead to potential trials.
From an exciting pool of applicants from across the UK, 10 cutting-edge hydrogen innovators have now been shortlisted to progress to the Innovation Challenge finals. Here, innovators shall receive tailored commercialisation support from SV’s innovation advisory team to accelerate their journey to market and improve investment readiness.
Of the 10 startups taking part, at least two will be chosen to partner with end users on specific hydrogen challenges/projects in the North West. This acceleration process will validate the hydrogen innovation potential in the North West and is expected to attract follow-on investment for future programmes.
