Vema Hydrogen

Paving a new scalable pathway for clean energy, Vema is pioneering Engineered Mineral Hydrogen to supply clean hydrogen that can provide low-carbon energy for centuries to come.

Problem

Maintaining global warming below 2 °C, as stipulated in the Paris Agreement, will require a complete overhaul of the global energy system. Hydrogen is considered to be a key component of the decarbonization strategy for sectors across transportation, aviation, shipping and electricity. Currently about 96% of hydrogen production comes from the steam reforming of coal or natural gas, and green hydrogen methods are too expensive and energy-intensive to produce. To meet low-carbon energy demand, hydrogen supply will need to be abundant, affordable and clean.

Solution

Vema’s innovative approach to engineered hydrogen offers an alternative solution to existing hydrogen production. Through the use of a catalyst and controlling parameters, such as flowrate and temperature, Vema optimises naturally occurring reactions beneath the Earth’s surface to produce sustainable hydrogen. With a process that is reliable and environmentally friendly, Vema is producing high purity hydrogen and a low levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) – unlocking a new era of scalable, cost-competitive, clean energy.
