CORALVILLE, IA, Jan. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)SunHydrogen, Inc. (OTCQB: HYSR), the developer of a breakthrough technology to produce renewable hydrogen using sunlight and water, today released a new showcasing its green hydrogen panel demonstration at the 1m² scale.

"On December 11, 2024, our team successfully demonstrated hydrogen production in subfreezing temperatures outside the SunHydrogen laboratory in Coralville, IA," said Dr. Syed Mubeen, Chief Technology Officer of SunHydrogen. "This video memorializes our achievement."

Green Hydrogen Production and its Challenges

Green hydrogen is produced through electrolysis powered by renewable sources such as wind, solar, or hydroelectric power. This process splits water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen, with hydrogen as the resulting fuel. While no greenhouse gases are emitted during production or consumption, the majority of today’s green hydrogen producers face challenges with long-distance transport, which can be both carbon-intensive and costly.

"Our solution will eliminate the need to transport hydrogen fuel over long distances," said Tim Young, CEO of SunHydrogen. "We plan to offer on-site solar hydrogen generation at or near the point of use: No more long-distance transport resulting in high costs and hydrogen losses."

The company’s technology is also fully self-contained, eliminating reliance on grid power for operation.

"With the completion of our commercially-relevant 1m² demonstration, we can now begin the site selection process for larger pilot demonstrations at the 25m² scale and beyond," Dr. Mubeen added.

Recent Milestones

Last fall, the company joined the Texas Hydrogen Alliance, a coalition of industry leaders advancing the hydrogen economy in Texas. Representatives from SunHydrogen also recently visited potential pilot plant sites in Hawaii alongside members of the Honda R&D team.

"I would once again like to thank the team at Honda R&D Co., the University of Iowa, the University of Michigan, Niigata Co., Ltd, and our expert consultants Prof. Kazunari Domen, Dr. Hiroshi Nishiyama, and Dr. Taro Yamada for their support," said Tim Young. "We look forward to building on this progress in 2025 as we set our sights on even greater milestones."

About SunHydrogen, Inc.

SunHydrogen is developing breakthrough technologies to make, store, and use green hydrogen in a market that Goldman Sachs estimates to be worth $12 trillion by 2050. The company’s patented SunHydrogen Panel technology, currently in development, uses sunlight and any source of water to produce low-cost green hydrogen. Like solar panels that produce electricity, SunHydrogen Panels produce green hydrogen.

The company’s vision is to become a major technology supplier in the new hydrogen economy. By developing, acquiring, and partnering with other critical technologies, SunHydrogen intends to enable a future of emission-free hydrogen production for industrial applications, including fertilizer production, petroleum refining, and fuel cell mobility solutions.
