About the company
HGenium, Inc. is commercializing a fully integrated water splitting cycle, discovered at Caltech, that produces green hydrogen and naturally pulls CO2 from the air. Driven primarily with heat, which is much cheaper to store than electricity, HGenium produces affordable carbon negative green hydrogen around the clock.
About the solution
HGenium’s proprietary water splitting cycle is composed of a series of heterogeneous reactions, driven primarily with heat, which result in the net splitting of water and capture of CO2. No compounds other than water are consumed over the course of the cycle. As heat is much cheaper to store than electricity, our cycle produces affordable carbon negative green hydrogen around the clock, even when using renewable energy sources.
