SAFCell has secured exclusive rights to patents from Caltech and Northwestern related to hydrogen generation using solid acid electrolyte membranes and related technologies. With these rights, and SAFCell's manufacturing know-how, SAFCell plans to develop large scale systems for the production of ultra-pure hydrogen from a host of “liquid hydrogen carriers,” such as ammonia, methanol and methylcyclohexane. Such liquid hydrogen carriers are essential to the use of green hydrogen to decarbonize hard to electrify energy sectors, such as heavy-duty transportation.
