SunHydrogen, Inc. developer of a breakthrough technology to produce renewable hydrogen using sunlight and water, has entered into a technology collaboration agreement with CTF Solar GmbH to integrate CTF’s solar cell modules into SunHydrogen’s technology for green hydrogen production.
Over the past eight months, SunHydrogen successfully adapted CTF Solar’s commercial solar cell module design to create a 100 cm² hydrogen module that facilitates hydrogen production with minimal modifications to the existing manufacturing process.
The strategic adaptation enhances the photovoltaic elements to achieve optimal voltages and currents, essential for efficient hydrogen generation. Furthermore, SunHydrogen is leading efforts to integrate catalysts and is collaborating closely with CTF Solar to implement stabilization coatings, ensuring improved performance and durability of the modules.
Through the agreement, SunHydrogen and CTF Solar will initiate the production of hydrogen modules for a pilot demonstration involving 50 1m² green hydrogen panels. As per the press release, the collaboration will evaluate the performance, cost-efficiency and operational functionality of these modules at a systems level. Soon, SunHydrogen plans to announce an industrial partner for development of housing units and essential infrastructure necessary for scaling up to commercial production.
