The Opportunity
OPPORTUNITY
The way forward is clear
The global hydrogen market is currently more than £140 billion and the vast majority of this demand is currently met using grey hydrogen production. We have the opportunity to change this.
Not only is Clear Hydrogen able to compete based on price, but it is part of the solution, not the problem, by reducing emissions.
A BETTER FUTURE
A fuel that can potentially remove carbon
It’s now understood that low-carbon or carbon-neutral solutions are no longer enough. Our society and our economy need innovative solutions that will remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Clear Hydrogen can do just this, proving itself to be a fuel of the future – but one that can be produced today. It completely flips on its head the relationship between energy production and carbon emissions, turning sinner into saint in the process.
The path to carbon negative
The current path sees cumulative emissions continuing to grow, with green hydrogen only slowing this growth. This is where Clear Hydrogen is radically different. Over the 30-year lifetime of a RiPR unit combined with carbon capture, it will continue to remove carbon from the atmosphere, very quickly entering negative territory.
With more hydrogen production meaning more carbon removal, this means that greater consumption is better – not worse – for emissions. Use the calculator below to see how your emissions change based on the path you choose.
A HOLISTIC SOLUTION
Circular economy
At the heart of our work lies a commitment to the principles of the circular economy. We are crafting a sustainable ecosystem where resources are utilised, regenerated and repurposed in a continuous loop.
By generating carbon-negative hydrogen, we provide energy for end users. We utilise the output of these users for further energy production and the cycle continues.
An example of this is our work exploring how waste-water treatment plants could integrate RiPR technology within their ecosystem. Their waste output becomes biogenic feedstock to produce Clear Hydrogen, effectively assisting in the disposal of waste, and providing a mutually beneficial relationship.
WORKING TOGETHER
Partnered with regenerative farming
Combining agricultural ingenuity with environmental consciousness, our partnership with a local regenerative farming project is rewriting the narrative of energy production and land use.
By seamlessly integrating herbal leys, a feedstock for producing Clear Hydrogen, into food crop rotations, the project is demonstrating the potential of bioenergy whilst nurturing our ecosystems.
TRANSITION FUEL
Bio-methane
Our RiPR technology produces bio-methane alongside hydrogen, providing an alternative sustainable fuel source. Thanks to existing technology, such as anaerobic digestors, blending of bio-methane into the gas grid is well established and possible at far higher concentrations currently.
Whilst the transition to hydrogen takes place, infrastructure adapts and the rules on blending solidify, bio-methane provides an intermediate solution for offtakers.
THE OUTPUTS
Commercial Potential
Our RiPR technology transforms wet biogenic material into four commercially viable products: bio-methane, hydrogen, captured carbon dioxide and biochar.
Having four commercially viable products – each with their distinct possible markets – lays out several pathways to profitability for our technology.
BY 2030
Our technology is ready
We’re excited about Clear Hydrogen and you should be too. Green hydrogen promises to be cost-effective in the future, but we have shown that Clear Hydrogen can be cost-effective right now.
Our aim is to have commercial RiPR units in place by 2030. This is a solution that can replace fossil fuels at pace.
