Modern Hydrogen
Modern Hydrogen is based in the Seattle area and was founded in 2015. Modern has raised $100M from top climate tech investors such as Bill Gates, At One Ventures, NextEra Energy, Inc., and National Grid Partners.
Modern Hydrogen is all about timely action. Our innovative clean hydrogen and carbon capture solutions leverage existing infrastructure to accelerate the decarbonization of industrial operations and fleet fueling.
Our mission is to make energy cleaner and cheaper. We are converting dirty fuel into affordable hydrogen exactly where it's needed. This is a cost-effective and timely way to dramatically cut down greenhouse gas emissions. It's not just about meeting emissions targets; it's about energy security, developing our economy, and creating jobs TODAY.
Natural gas emissions from heavy industry account for between one-fifth and one-third of global greenhouse gas emissions. An estimated one-third of emissions come from fuels used for transportation. Modern Hydrogen's goal is to dramatically reduce emissions from industrial operations and mobility fuels by decarbonizing natural gas and delivering clean hydrogen for cleaner and cheaper energy solutions. Our customers include some of the top utilities in the country, and our technologies have thousands of hours of run time in the lab.
Modern Hydrogen utilizes cutting-edge technologies to produce clean hydrogen on-site and sequester carbon efficiently. We're using distributed systems to turn natural gas into hydrogen, making clean energy more cost-effective and eco-friendly. Utilizing advanced methane pyrolysis techniques, we produce hydrogen locally, reducing transportation costs, hazards, and emissions. Methane pyrolysis is a process that decomposes methane into hydrogen gas and solid carbon without creating carbon dioxide. We integrate solid carbon into asphalt products to make roads stronger, cheaper, and less reliant on emissions-heavy oils.
