Happy Thursday! How about the Astros game last night?
Ever since the announcement last
week in which the Houston area’s HyVelocity
is going to receive federal funds, the hydrogen industry is receiving a lot of
press time. Here’s more good news for
the Houston area and the road to cleaner energies and lower emissions.
Did anyone
happen to read
The Houston Chronicle on October 15, 2023, their article titled,
“Clean hydrogen startup nets another big investor”? In the article, it goes on to speak about a
local venture enterprise,
Syzygy Plasmonics
has added another investor in its innovation of all electric chemical reactors Mitsubishi
Heavy Industries America. Mitsubishi has
joined a line of investors which include names like Chevron Technology Ventures,
Toyota Ventures, Saudi Aramco to name a few. The investors believe in the chemical
reactor to the tune of $100 million, and they are willing to invest in it to get
it commercialized for the upcoming green hydrogen business.
Syzygy Plasmonics is developing an all-electric
chemical reactor, Rigel™, which uses light instead of combustion and this is an
important technology, if ammonia is going to be split into hydrogen after its
journey around the world in a cost-effective way.
Their reactor
may be run by renewables, so the end product will be clean energy with very
low emissions, if any. This is good news
for the hydrogen industry and
HyVelocity, if we are going to reach our
climate goals of net-zero. If you would
