CEO Tim Young presented Advancing Renewable H2 Production Technology Through Development of Inexpensive NanoH2 Generators while Syed Mubeen presented Design of High-Efficiency Large Scale Photo-Electro-Chemical Devices for Hydrogen Production Through Water Splitting.
The event, hosted by the Indian Oil Corporation’s (IOC) Alternative Energy Department brought together over 60 researchers and scientists in the field of hydrogen generation, with an emphasis on collaborating to spur the renewable hydrogen technology development cycle, with IOC playing a pivotal role in the same.
Other speakers included Dr. Nathan Neale and Dr. Todd G. Deutsch, two senior scientists with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL); Dr. Sanjay Mathur from the University of Cologne, Germany; Dr. Thomas Fischer director of Materials Alliance Cologne and of Steinbeis GmbH, Cologne, Germany; and Dr. Kirtiman Deo Malviya, Scholar at Department of Materials, Science and Engineering Technion at the Israel Institute of Technology.
“Collaborations like this are the key to bringing these technologies to scale, not only advancing the companies that develop them, but helping to move forward the entire renewable hydrogen industry,” said Dr. Syed Mubeen, Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Iowa and HyperSolar’s Lead Researcher. “This opportunity to discuss our technology on a global stage shows the progress and scientific foundation we have achieved over the past year.”
"The Research & Development Center at Indian Oil Corporation is leading the way in developing hydrogen fuel solutions for various consumer and industrial applications in India, where there is a significant and unmet need for clean fuel to address environmental pollution,” said Tim Young, CEO of HyperSolar. “We are appreciative of the Alternative Energy Department and the contributions of the other speakers for their vision and support as we continue to advance our own renewable hydrogen technology to commercial viability.”
About HyperSolar, Inc.
HyperSolar is developing a breakthrough, low cost technology to make renewable hydrogen using sunlight and any source of water, including seawater and wastewater. Unlike hydrocarbon fuels, such as oil, coal and natural gas, where carbon dioxide and other contaminants are released into the atmosphere when used, hydrogen fuel usage produces pure water as the only byproduct. By optimizing the science of water electrolysis at the nano-level, our low cost nanoparticles mimic photosynthesis to efficiently use sunlight to separate hydrogen from water, to produce environmentally friendly renewable hydrogen. Using our low cost method to produce renewable hydrogen, we intend to enable a world of distributed hydrogen production for renewable electricity and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
