Haffner targets deal for 12 biomass-to-hydrogen units in western US
In the UK, Gas World reported that French technology firm Haffner Energy will reserve capacity for 12 biomass-to-hydrogen systems that could be deployed for mobility and power projects in three western US states.
The $116,000 reservation from Californian bio-methanol start-up OroCarbo could see Haffner’s Synoca C-iC units installed at wider energy hubs in California, Oregon, and Washington, after pivoting away from a centralized project, according to the report.
The units, which are yet to see commercial deployment, are designed to produce up to 40.8MWh of hydrogen-rich syngas through a high-temperature thermolysis and steam biomass reforming process, it added.
OroCarbo said it will use hydrogen for mobility and power applications where grid capacity and consistency are limited.
