Siemens and Boson Energy Collaborate on Waste-to-Hydrogen Technology for Sustainable EV Charging
Key Ideas
- Siemens and Boson Energy have signed an MoU to develop technology that converts non-recyclable waste into clean hydrogen for hydrogen-powered EV charging, focusing on grid stability.
- Boson Energy's Hydrogen by Plasma Assisted Gasification technology will be integrated into an 'energy hub' solution to produce sustainable hydrogen supporting off-grid applications and reliable grid operations.
- The collaboration aims to eliminate the need for hydrogen compression, storage, and transport, offering fast charging options that can compete with fossil fuels while creating additional sector coupling opportunities.
- Siemens will support Boson Energy in creating scalable solutions using digital services and software for optimisation, standardisation, and simulation throughout manufacturing and operational phases.
Energy equipment and solutions developer Boson Energy, based in Luxembourg, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Siemens AG during the ACHEMA Fair in Frankfurt. The collaboration aims to develop technology that converts non-recyclable waste into clean hydrogen to enable hydrogen-powered EV charging without compromising grid stability. Boson Energy's Hydrogen by Plasma Assisted Gasification (HPAG) technology will be integrated into an 'energy hub' solution to produce sustainable hydrogen that can support off-grid applications such as fast charging and ensure reliable grid operations. Their model focuses on delivering hydrogen as hydrogen-powered heavy-duty fast charging, eliminating the need for compression, storage, and transport of hydrogen. Siemens will provide support in building a scalable solution by offering digital services and software for optimization, standardization, and simulation. The collaboration targets the production of 1 million tons of circular hydrogen from waste by 2030, aiming to avoid up to 30 million tons of CO2 emissions annually.
