Fusion Fuel - Model HEVO-Solar -Hydrogen Generator

By integrating the HEVO directly to the CPV module, not only are we able to utilize the electrical energy to power the electrochemical reaction without transport or conversion losses, but we can also recover that “wasted” thermal energy and use it to pre-heat the feed water, reducing the electrical load required to split water by roughly 10%.

In a location with 2,100 kWh/m2/year of direct normal irradiance—like Southern Portugal—each HEVO-Solar can produce one metric ton of green hydrogen per year using only solar power. The HEVO-Solar is able to utilize energy from the grid or secondary sources of power to operate overnight or when the sun isn’t shining, offering the potential to double the annual output of each unit.

As our integrated solution is completely modular and cost-competitive even at small-scale, we are able to right-size a project to the specific customer need and deploy on-site anywhere in the world where the sun shines. Co-locating our green hydrogen production means that our customers can avoid expensive transportation and logistics costs, which alone can add € 1-2 / kg to the levelized cost of hydrogen.
