REPEAT -- Clean Power Capital Corp.: PowerTap’s Patented Onsite Hydrogen Production System Addresses Hydrogen Supply Chain Risk and Lowers Carbon Intensity of Hydrogen Produced
Clean Power Capital Corp. (OTC: MOTNF) announced updates regarding its subsidiary PowerTap's plans to implement a distributed hydrogen program. This program aims to enhance hydrogen supply reliability and reduce carbon emissions. PowerTap's patented onsite hydrogen production unit aims to eliminate supply disruptions and lower costs while improving safety. The initiative seeks to match onsite production with nearby hydrogen-fueling stations. Clean Power's focus on renewable energy investments remains strong, with an emphasis on sustainable solutions for hydrogen distribution.
- PowerTap's onsite hydrogen production unit aims to improve reliability and reduce carbon emissions.
- The initiative can lower costs by eliminating transportation expenses.
- PowerTap positions itself to sell produced hydrogen to nearby fueling stations, enhancing potential revenue streams.
- Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could impact operational success.
- Dependence on the development of hydrogen-powered vehicles and regulatory support poses a risk.
VANCOUVER, British Columbia and IRVINE, Calif., May 19, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clean Power Capital Corp. (NEO: MOVE)(FWB: 2K6)(OTC: MOTNF) (“Clean Power” or the “Company” or "MOVE"). The Company is pleased to provide an update on plans for its wholly owned subsidiary, PowerTap, to establish a distributed hydrogen program that addresses supply chain risk in the delivery of hydrogen to consumer and commercial transportation users while lowering the carbon intensity of the produced hydrogen.
The current model for dispensing hydrogen for vehicles for most all the current stations in operation in the USA, is the Compress, Store, Dispense (CSD) model, in which industrial hydrogen is produced in a central plant (grey hydrogen) and shipped by tanker truck to the fuel station, where it is compressed, stored and dispensed to vehicles.
The CSD model creates several problems that PowerTap solves with its revolutionary, patented 1,250-kg modular onsite hydrogen production and dispensing unit, the PowerTap Gen3. First, it eliminates disruptions of hydrogen supply to the consumer by augmenting production capabilities locally. The importance of this was demonstrated in 2019, when there was a disruption at a hydrogen production facility in Northern California causing a major hydrogen shortage to CSD operators in Northern California (https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1124908_northern-california-fuel-cell-drivers-still-left-dry-since-june-explosion). Second, it provides hydrogen at a lower cost point by eliminating the cost of shipping and simultaneously lowers the carbon intensity (CI) of the produced hydrogen by about 80 grams of CO2 per megajoule down to a CI of zero via elimination of the trucking of the fuel to its dispensing point. Third, it improves safety by eliminating the transport of high-pressure gas via commercial carriers. Further, it puts PowerTap in a position to sell the hydrogen it produces onsite to nearby CSD stations.
“We look forward to PowerTap’s onsite production and dispensing technology revolutionizing hydrogen delivery to hydrogen fuel cell vehicle consumers by eliminating hydrogen supply shocks with our unique hydrogen distribution solution,” said Kelley Owen, PowerTap Hydrogen Fueling Corp.’s Chief Operating Officer.
