Hydrogen Trial Aims to Slash Electrolyser Energy Costs

Hadean Energy is conducting a groundbreaking trial at CSIRO’s Hydrogen Technology Demonstration Facility (HTDF), testing a new electrolyser technology that could generate green hydrogen with up to 30% less electricity than traditional systems. This innovative tubular solid oxide electrolyser also offers efficient syngas production for e-fuels, featuring a simple tubular design and unique catalyst to reduce both manufacturing and maintenance costs.

Hadean Energy’s electrolyser module is undergoing extensive durability and performance testing at the HTDF. This state-of-the-art facility provides the ideal setup for innovators in the hydrogen sector, supplying renewable electricity, deionised water, and a range of safety and monitoring equipment to support cutting-edge hydrogen production projects.

With a CSIRO Kick-Start grant, Hadean Energy has been able to push its technology forward into real-world testing. “Our trial is proceeding well, thanks to the fantastic support from CSIRO staff,” said Chris Rowland, CEO of Hadean Energy. “Early results are highly promising, and we’re excited about advancing toward commercial-scale production, aiming to decarbonize industries that are challenging to green.”

CSIRO’s HTDF is invaluable for moving from prototype to pilot scale in a safe, controlled environment. Deputy Leader of CSIRO’s Hydrogen Industry Mission, Karen Kozielski, emphasized the HTDF’s stringent safety measures: “With our comprehensive risk assessments, we provide researchers a trusted environment to showcase their technology safely and effectively.”

As Hadean Energy's trial progresses, this project could pave the way for more sustainable hydrogen production, supporting Australia’s energy transition and setting a new standard in electrolyser efficiency.
