"We are extremely pleased to receive this support from the forward looking team at SoCalGas. We believe our collaboration with SoCalGas provides not just additional financial support, but also their engagement with us in moving the energy transition forwards in
"This exciting and innovative project offers a look at how hydrogen can play a vital role in helping industries in
The goal of this project is to develop ultra-low NOx hydrogen burner technology, which the Company believes will enable the adoption of hydrogen fuel for industrial heating, leading to reductions in the industrial emissions of both carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides. Current burners and previous efforts to decarbonize industrial combustion processes through the utilization of hydrogen fuel are inhibited by the lack of industrial hydrogen burners capable of burning pure hydrogen while preventing additional Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) emissions.
Phase One saw the completion and deployment of a prototype process burner that successfully integrated hydrogen and hydrogen blending while maintaining NOx below 5 ppm. Phase Two will entail scaling up the size of the burner from 2 MMBtu per hour up to 8 MMBtu per hour and deploying it in real-world, commercial industrial settings where high heat is required, over the next two years.
SoCalGas has made clean energy innovations designed to decarbonize hard-to-electrify sectors a key component of its efforts to help
SoCalGas is also working to help the state of
