III. Technology update

The history of alkaline electrolysers

1 st generation

Atmospheric pressure electrolysers developed in the 1920s.

High-pressure alkaline systems developed in China in the 1960s.

HydrogenPro high-pressure alkaline system based on next-generation electrode technology.

The HydrogenPro way to improve total efficiency

Production element WHY EFFECTS
New hydrogen
gas
purifying unit
(2,200 m3 gas/hr, 30 bar)
The high pressure and flow will be customized for
our existing system.
Full independence between modules, lowering
downtime for total installation.
Proprietary technology customized to our
system enables increased efficiency, more
hydrogen produced per unit of input and zero
losses of gas.
New electrolyser
body
Eliminate efficiency loss through shunt current.
(V = 0.41 x number of cells x number of
kiloamps (DC) kA x Z)
Eliminates shunt current, widens operating
range and increases hydrogen gas output.
Target is to have Z = 1
3
rd
Gen electrode
The 2nd
generation electrode is 25 years old and
there are thus many areas of improvement,
especially with regards to energy efficiency.
Reduces the energy needed to produce
gas and reduced need for cooling water.
New cooling system The new 3rd
Gen electrode will have much higher
efficiency, resulting in less heat generation.
Allows higher temperature on CWS
and can reduce the use of water.

Testing of 3 rd Gen electrolyser technology

  • HydrogenPro's advanced electrode technology (3 rd Gen) has been tested for the first 1000 hour run.
  • First results show significant efficiency improvements.
  • First test run was completed with double current density and result shows a better efficiency at double current density compared to 2nd generation (commercial technology with 25 years history) electrodes at normal current density.
  • Next step: Repeat same procedure for normal current density.

Small-scale test at technology center, Herøya

IV. Strategy

HydrogenPro to become #1 large-scale provider of green hydrogen production plants

  • High-pressure alkaline electrolysers.
  • Next-generation electrode technology.

  • 1GW global production capacity in 2023.

  • Partnerships & JVs.

  • Standardised and modular design.

  • Capital light partnership model.

  • Plant management and services.

  • Recurring revenues on installed base.

HydrogenPro's high pressure alkaline technology has several advantages

Building a global footprint to become #1 provider

  • Worldwide production/assembly facilities:
  • Reduce cost from shipping, tolls and fees.
  • Local presence to secure service and aftersales.
  • Secure national political support.
  • Develop local supply chains.
  • Partnering reduces upfront costs compared to wholly-owned fabrication sites.
  • Industrial competence engineering capacity through partnerships with world-class fabrication and construction companies.

Reducing the CO2 footprint and being close to our customers is important.

Life cycle model increases recurring revenues

Life cycle services include:

  • Rapid response support.
  • Service and overhaul.
  • Production optimization.
  • Remote and digital services.
  • Predictive modelling.

Increase in installed base of plant deliveries will accumulate recurring revenues

Installed capacity

HydrogenPro's technology lays the foundation for rapid scale up of both partnerships and products

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) ready for takeoff

V. Summary

Executive summary

Offtake agreements signed by DG Fuels make up the largest green hydrogen project globally. Estimated value is >USD 500 million.

Backlog of NOK 849 mill & active sales pipeline of 17 GW.

First test phase of advanced electrode technology completed – significant improvements. Validation of the world's largest electrolyser expected commissioned on 9th of November 2022, and the electrolyser is producing gas.
