Hydrogen

Aberdeen has technology, the Advanced Electrolyzer System (AES), capable of producing high purity green hydrogen at less than $5 per kilogram.

ABOUT HYDROGEN

Hydrogen is essential for a renewable and sustainable economy.

Hydrogen produced from renewable electricity eliminates fossil fuels and lowers CO2 emissions. As industrial feedstock, hydrogen is used for the refining of crude oil, iron and steelmaking as well as the production of fertilizers and of numerous chemical products.

Production, purification and compression of hydrogen represent key technical challenges for the implementation of a hydrogen economy.

Hydrogen will play a significant role in energy grid resiliency and the transportation sector in the near future.

OPPORTUNITY IN THE HYDROGEN MARKET

The hydrogen market is already very large. Currently about 10 million tons/year of hydrogen is produced in the U.S. alone.

Industrial hydrogen markets, such as refineries, ammonia factories, chemical plants and fertilizer plants are the major hydrogen consumers today. They have very dilute hydrogen streams that are wasted. This waste represents up to 10-20% of the overall hydrogen market.

New technology, such as the AES, that more effectively purifies hydrogen can offer great value to the expanding hydrogen market.

AES TECHNOLOGY

Currently, hydrogen is extracted from natural gas reformates using technologies such as Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA).

These traditional technologies can only recover 70-80% of the hydrogen in the feed. The remaining hydrogen streams are wasted and are a lost economic opportunity. AES provides a solution for completely separating hydrogen from these very dilute streams economically.

Aberdeen’s AES technology has the following key technical advantages:

Robustness: No moving parts (solid state) making the technology highly durable and energy efficient
CAPEX: Lowest electrolyzer costs reduce capital requirements
Scalability: Modular stack design and phased capacity expansion enables effective scaling to large electrolysis capacities
Feedstock Flexible: With selective separation of Hydrogen our technology is uniquely suitable for challenging dilute streams such as Biogas and Industrial Process Exhaust
Adaptability: Easy integration into any environment – whether industrial or greenfield

AES provides a more effective solution for the removal of hydrogen at a significantly lower cost.

The AES technology is clean, efficient, cost effective and meets the growing energy needs and challenges of the world today.
