About Aurora Hydrogen
Aurora Hydrogen is a startup that specializes in the production and distribution of clean, low-carbon hydrogen. The company operates in the clean energy market, serving clients in carbon-intensive sectors that are difficult to decarbonize. These sectors include energy storage and various industrial applications.
Aurora Hydrogen's business model is unique and efficient. Unlike traditional methods of hydrogen production such as electrolysis and steam reforming with carbon capture, Aurora Hydrogen's process is designed to be cost-effective and scalable. The company's technology uses off-the-shelf components that have been tested and proven reliable. This approach eliminates the need for precious metals, water, new pipelines or storage infrastructure, and reduces the need for electricity and transport.
The company's hydrogen production plants run on natural gas and electricity alone. They produce low-carbon hydrogen by heating natural gas directly with efficient microwave energy. This method uses 80% less electricity than electrolysis, which keeps operating expenses low.
Aurora Hydrogen's business model is based on on-site hydrogen production. This means the company produces hydrogen at the point of use, eliminating transmission constraints and reducing the need for transport. This approach allows the company to serve a wide range of clients, from energy supermajors to top universities.
In terms of revenue, Aurora Hydrogen makes money by selling its low-carbon hydrogen to clients in various industries. The company also partners with investors and development partners for financial support and business expansion.
