Unlocking the Future of Hydrogen: A Webinar on Revolutionary Electrolysis Technology
A recent webinar hosted by the Hydrogen Society of Australia, and now available to view online, explores an innovative approach to hydrogen production.
Professor Gerry Swiegers, Chief Technology Officer of Hysata Pty Ltd and an Australian Research Council Industry Laureate Fellow at the University of Wollongong, discusses bubble-free capillary water electrolysis, a novel technology with significant potential, in a Hydrogen Society of Australia (HSA) webinar available to view online now.
This webinar is part of the Hydrogen Links series, organized by HSA with the support of academic and industry collaborators. With a focus on industry-oriented academic research, Hydrogen Links aims to facilitate knowledge exchange and collaboration to drive innovations in the hydrogen sector.
In the webinar, Prof. Swiegers explains bubble-free capillary water electrolysis, an approach using an electrochemical cell architecture where water is fed to the electrodes through capillary action, achieving efficiencies of ≥95%. This process achieves an energy consumption of just 41.5 kWh per kg of hydrogen, exceeding targets set by the International Renewable Energy Agency for 2050.
Hysata, the company behind this innovation, has already amassed an order book exceeding $5 billion, highlighting the immense demand for cost-competitive green hydrogen.
