Elemental Energy, based in Portland, Oregon, has entered a distribution agreement with Hexagon Purus, a company from Oslo, Norway, to distribute hydrogen products in Southern and East Africa. The partnership aims to provide leading Type 4 cylinders, multielement gas containers, and hydrogen distribution systems to markets in countries like South Africa, Namibia, and Kenya, where the number of green hydrogen projects is on the rise. Elemental Energy's focus is on building hydrogen power systems that can replace diesel generation for backup power, with an eye on decarbonization opportunities in global markets. This collaboration targets not only the export of green hydrogen but also local use cases, emphasizing the importance of new hydrogen technologies for developing markets. By leveraging Hexagon Purus' storage solutions, Elemental Energy showcases the viability of green hydrogen in projects like the integrated backup system at Jaci’s Safari Lodge. The initiative aims to decrease reliance on diesel generators in Southern Africa by offering sustainable energy solutions through clean alternatives. The ultimate goal is to support the region's transition to green hydrogen by providing access to advanced distribution systems and promoting decarbonization initiatives.
