Planetary Hydrogen is a mission to restore our climate. Driven by the goal of removing 1 billion tons of carbon from the atmosphere by 2035, the growing multi-disciplinary team is moving quickly to test solutions, fail-fast and push the boundaries of scientific knowledge related to ocean-based CDR and negative emissions hydrogen technology.

Planetary Hydogren’s patented geo-electrochemical process adds a mineral salt to traditional electrolysis to produce hydrogen, oxygen an acid and a base using renewable energy and water. The green hydrogen can be used as a chemical feedstock or energy carrier for hard to electrify transport and industrial processes. The base is used as a source of alkalinity, which when added to the ocean, enhances the ocean’s natural ability to take up atmospheric carbon by forming stable bicarbonates while also reducing local ocean acidification.
