The Ideal Hydrogen Carrier
From methanol to hydrogen to electricity – fueling the future of transport.
Element 1 hydrogen technology uses methanol as the primary input feedstock – it is simple to access, store and transport, is a highly efficient hydrogen carrier and gives a clear pathway to a future of carbon-neutral transport via renewable methanol.
Why Element 1
Element 1 is a world leader in high-purity, on-demand hydrogen generation technology.
Element 1 hydrogen generation technology is modular, scalable, mobile, and economic, and can produce hydrogen whenever and wherever you need it. Our patented purifiers produce fuel cell grade hydrogen from methanol, meeting ISO 14687 purity standards, for up to 75% less cost than delivered bulk gas hydrogen.
Our Technology
Unique hydrogen generation technology for unrivalled flexibility and cost advantages.
Our world-leading hydrogen generation and purification technology opens a whole new world of exciting applications and possibilities to access and use the clean-energy fuel of the future, with hydrogen on-demand, lower costs, and greater efficiency for transport fleets.
On-Site FCEV Hydrogen Refueling
If your vehicles return to base for refueling, then our on-site generators can make sure high-purity fuel cell grade hydrogen from methanol is ready and waiting when you need it. On-site hydrogen generation can remove the cost and complexity of expensive electrolyzer production, and remove the issues with manufacturing, transporting and storing bulk liquid or compressed hydrogen.
On-site Electricity Generation for BEV Charging Stations
Our methanol-hydrogen-electricity pathway can provide clean, reliable, economic electricity generation on-site to charge BEVs. On-site power generation removes reliance on local electrical grids to provide a secure and reliable source of electricity. Our technology uses methanol, which is easy to access, transport, and store, to provide grid-independent fuel cell power.
Marine Mobile Hydrogen Generation for a clean and economic future on the seas and inland waterways
The e1 Marine hydrogen generator solution (licensed from Element 1 Corp) makes the hydrogen generator/fuel cell combination a reality and an attractive choice for the marine industry. Element 1 has teamed up with industry leaders to form e1 Marine, a joint venture aimed at commercializing this technology in the maritime space. Find out more about our latest innovations on the seas and waterways.
Critical Infrastructure
Reliable and cost-effective fuel cell backup power solutions ensure critical infrastructure availability during unexpected power outages. Secure, safe, reliable and as-needed hydrogen for fuel cell electricity generation can be your primary source of power – or an essential back-up.
Material Handling
Our scalable hydrogen generators can lower the cost and increase reliability and safety for warehouses running fuel cell forklifts and industrial vehicles. With material handling vehicles typically staying at, or returning to base regularly, our on-site hydrogen generation is an ideal solution.
Applications
Element 1 technology can be used for mobile hydrogen generation supporting fuel cell vehicles (including buses, trucks, trains, and boats), on-site hydrogen refueling, on-site electricity generation for BEV charging stations, innovative marine applications, construction and mining vehicles, and much more.
