Hydrogenious sets sights on Middle East
The firm is building links with port operators, regulatory authorities, EPC firms and hydrogen project developers as it looks to raise awareness of its transport technology
Hydrogenious LOHC Technologies—which is developing liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) technology as a way to transport hydrogen molecules—is focusing its expansion efforts on the MENA market. LOHC is one of a number of solutions—including liquefaction, compression and conversion to ammonia or methanol—that could potentially be used to transport hydrogen molecules over long distances on ships, on trucks or in pipelines. LOHC is one of the least commercialised hydrogen transport options but has the potential to be among the cheapest if fully adopted.
