Hadean Energy is making strides in hydrogen technology at the Hydrogen Technology Demonstration Facility (HTDF) located at the Clayton campus in Victoria, Australia. They are utilizing the facility to trial their tubular Solid Oxide Electrolysis technology, which shows potential for producing green hydrogen more efficiently compared to conventional electrolysers. The HTDF offers essential infrastructure, renewable electricity, deionised water, and technical support for researchers working on various aspects of hydrogen technology. Hadean Energy's CEO, Chris Rowland, expressed satisfaction with the trial's progress, highlighting the facility's smooth operation and support from CSIRO staff. The technology being tested not only enables green hydrogen production but also has the capability to efficiently generate syngas for e-fuels. Its simple design and proprietary catalyst may lead to reduced manufacturing and maintenance costs. The long-term durability and performance of Hadean Energy's electrolyser module are undergoing rigorous testing at the HTDF over several months, aiming to pave the way for commercial-scale production. Karen Kozielski, deputy leader of the Hydrogen Industry Mission, emphasized the importance of the HTDF in scaling up technologies safely and securely, particularly for showcasing innovations to potential stakeholders. The facility's safety systems and adherence to strict protocols ensure that researchers can demonstrate their technologies effectively. Furthermore, Hadean Energy's participation in the Kick-Start program has been instrumental in bridging the gap between early-stage research and commercialization. This program, offering matched funding and expert support, has enabled startups like Hadean Energy to access vital research facilities, develop prototypes, and accelerate their path to market readiness. The positive outcomes of Hadean Energy's trial and partnership with the Kick-Start program demonstrate the collaborative efforts driving innovation in the hydrogen sector.
