How Our System Works
Hybrid Renewable Power Stations
Solar, Wind and/or Grid are connected and plug directly into the H₂IPO.
Our system manages these inputs and optimises the use of battery & hydrogen for backup.
The H₂IPO creates an on-site microgrid and performs all energy control (e.g., no other inverters, batteries or controllers needed).
How We Do It
Scenario 1: Hydrogen Produced on Site
H₂IPO uses solar/wind during the day to produce power. Excess energy is stored in batteries and used to make hydrogen.
H₂IPO uses stored energy at night or during times when solar and wind are insufficient.
Scenario 2: Hydrogen Delivered to Site
Power Generation
Electrolysis to produce Hydrogen and Boosting
Storage of Hydrogen in towable trailers
Transport of Hydrogen to site
H₂IPO uses hydrogen to produce power on site
Why Hydrogen?
Cleaner
Hydrogen produces only heat and water as byproducts. Hydrogen is a diesel replacement and improves emissions along the whole energy supply chain even when grey hydrogen is used. Green hydrogen results in zero emissions throughout it’s entire life-cycle and is a true source of clean energy.
Quieter
Hydrogen fuel-cell generators are not noisy like traditional back-up power sources including diesel generators. This is because power is produced through a chemical reaction rather than through a combustion engine. This means there are fewer moving parts and much less mechanical noise.
Cost Effective
Hydrogen is more cost-effective than battery solutions. For the same storage capacity, you would need multiple batteries which are bulky and expensive. These would also need to be transported off-site at regular intervals to be recharged. Hydrogen is easily transportable and can be plugged in wherever and whenever needed.
