Innovative Collaboration to Produce Carbon Negative Hydrogen at Worthy Farm
Key Ideas
  • Hexla and Levidian join forces to deploy 'carbon negative' technology at Worthy Farm in Somerset.
  • The partnership aims to produce clean hydrogen and graphene from biomethane, turning cow slurry into valuable resources.
  • The project is expected to save up to 25 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent annually and generate revenue from selling graphene as an additive.
  • Both companies express enthusiasm for the project, highlighting the potential of the technology to decarbonize industries and create new revenue streams.
Clean hydrogen developer Hexla and climate tech firm Levidian have partnered to deploy their 'carbon negative' technology at Worthy Farm in Somerset, the site of Glastonbury Festival. The collaboration involves implementing Levidian's LOOP technology to produce carbon negative hydrogen from biomethane, derived from cow slurry. This innovative process will also generate graphene, a valuable by-product. The project aims to reduce carbon emissions by up to 25 tonnes annually while utilizing the graphene in various industries. Hexla is funding the development of an industrial-scale LOOP1000 unit, which is expected to produce cost-effective clean hydrogen and high-quality graphene. The joint venture between Hexla and Levidian plans to deploy up to 300 LOOP1000 units globally. Both companies are optimistic about the project's potential to revolutionize hydrogen production and decarbonize industries. According to Hexla's Founder, the collaboration marks the beginning of successful deployments of clean hydrogen technology, emphasizing the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the LOOP technology. Levidian CEO views the Worthy Farm project as a significant innovation in the agriculture sector, showcasing the versatility of their technology in reducing carbon emissions and creating new income streams. The partnership reflects a broader effort to advance green technology and sustainability in hard-to-abate industries.
