ABOUT HES STORAGE
Hydrogen Production and Storage. Reimagined.
Our core focus is hydrogen storage and production, particularly advanced low-pressure non explosive and non-leakage hydrogen storage and integrated hydrogen energy solutions for a cleaner, safer and more efficient future.
The future is hydrogen, but only if there is extremely safe, efficient, and practical storage. Hydrogen Energy Systems innovative development introduces a paradigm shift in H2 storage vessels and H2 storage material. We provide a new and unique patented approach to solid state metal hydride H2 storage and add critical new dimensions to present knowledge. Current metal hydrides (MH) that are in development typically use powder or metal particulates with fins and tubes; however, this is an approach that faces major technological obstacles, i.e., material stability (degradation of material during hydrogen cycling) and a grave limitation in H2 delivery rate and recharging due to inadequate heat conduction and limited container dimensional stability. Hydrogen Energy Systems has developed and has granted patents in a new and unique hydride materials that we term porous metal hydride (PMH). This new and unique PMH material resists degradation and has been tested and verified to an astonishing 60,000 reverse hydrogen cycles, this can provide a H2 storage life measured in years of extremely active system usage. Hydra-Pak absorbs and desorbs hydrogen without need of the very expensive compressors or pumps that add so much extra to overall system costs While other MH developers are working to introduce promising materials and storage systems all have the inherent problems mentioned above, however should anything interesting come along then our unique and secret material processing technology permits Hydrogen Energy Systems to reprocess any other developers MH materials into our own PMH, thereby significantly improving upon any other MH developments, thus ensuring that Hydrogen Energy Systems always maintains a significant lead in the field of solid state H2 storage.
Hydrogen Energy Systems PMH can store 4X more hydrogen at low pressure than can be compressed into cylinders or tanks at very disturbing high pressures This new PMH material is packaged in an equally innovative and patented storage vessel termed 'Hydra-Pak', a vessel that is extremely safe and non explosive, even if the integrity of the Hydra-Pak vessel is compromised through accident or wildfire etc. The Hydra-Pak also prevents compaction of the materials, something that would otherwise seriously limit all MH storage performance requirements. The Hydra-Pak can also quite uniquely provide a H2 storage system with many geometric shapes thereby providing storage vessels that can be fitted into difficult spaces and locations, the Hydra-Pak has an intelligent control system that measures H2 flow and quantity, pressure temperature sensing with data management and real time system reporting. Only chemical storage of hydrogen in PMH solid hydrides can satisfy the stability and usability criteria that is required for the safe use in widespread applications such as zero emission vehicles and storage of intermittently produced power from wind, wave and solar.
HES Storage has developed low cost next-generation hydrogen technologies designed to address some of the most important challenges in the hydrogen economy — storage, transportation, integration and utilization.
Our technology platform combines low-pressure non explosive hydrogen storage, metal-hydride systems, non boil-off.
Our objective is to help customers adopt hydrogen without having to redesign their entire energy infrastructure.
