DESCRIPTION:

HSL Technologies is a French start-up engaged in the development of simple, efficient, innovative and cost-effective methods to transport and store hydrogen.

 

HydroSil®, HSL Technologies’ patented solution, has the potential to overcome the fundamental challenge of safely and economically transporting and storing hydrogen on a large scale. It is a unique process that introduces hydrogen molecules into a silica-based liquid carrier, where the hydrogen can be released on demand. This carrier is stable and can be safely transported and stored in existing infrastructures at ambient pressure and temperature.

 

This technology requires energy to bind the hydrogen in the carrier, but none to release it, unlike other existing solutions.
