In Canada, Nu:ionic Technologies announced it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Liberty Utilities for the development of a 2.4 tons per day hydrogen production system utilizing Nu:ionic proprietary Microwave Catalytic Reformers (MCRs).
Liberty will utilize the facility to pilot the blending of hydrogen into natural gas. This is the first commercial application of Nu:ionic’s on-site, on-demand hydrogen production technology using microwave energy to decarbonize natural gas with electrified reforming, the company said.
Nu:ionic’s said its microwave reformers eliminate the need for fuel combustion, greatly reducing the amount of feedstock required to produce hydrogen and significantly reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
This agreement will enable both companies to collaborate and demonstrate the feasible use of low carbon hydrogen to reduce greenhouse gases within New Brunswick. In parallel with this initiative, the companies are collaborating to obtain funding for project development from federal and provincial organizations.
