Simply put, this is a more cost-efficient and environmentally-advantageous way of delivering hydrogen." It greatly reduces capital and maintenance costs by efficiently compressing hydrogen to commercial storage pressures at significant scale, while avoiding the unacceptable downtime and maintenance pitfalls that have hampered mechanical compressors. Trent Molter, President & CEO of SKYRE, said, "The electrochemical compression system developed by SKYRE is significantly different than the conventional approach that utilizes mechanical compressors. Originally developed for NASA as part of critical life support systems for astronauts, the product is designed for a broad array of uses in the emerging hydrogen energy – fuel and storage – markets.ĭr. Using a proprietary electrochemical process developed by SKYRE, the H2RENEW compressor separates and compresses recovered hydrogen to commercial storage pressures, facilitating its reuse for fueling and other high-value applications. SKYRE is the first company in the world to offer a family of onsite, electrochemical separation and compression products that capture hydrogen, purify it and send it back for use in industrial processes. H2RENEW is a breakthrough, solid-state system that provides manufacturers and businesses a way to save money and reduce carbon emissions by recovering and recycling hydrogen that is wasted/vented. EAST HARTFORD, Conn., April 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - SKYRE, a global clean energy leader that builds and sells hydrogen renewal systems, has announced the release of its newest product: the H2RENEW™ compact electrochemical hydrogen compressor.
