About Ecolectro

Ecolectro is a chemical company that has developed a way to make green hydrogen at a lower cost. The company manufactures anion exchange membranes (AEM) and proprietary catalysts that are used in electrolyzers. Electrolyzers are devices that split water into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity. By using Ecolectro's membranes, electrolyzer manufacturers can avoid using expensive and scarce materials like iridium and titanium, which are necessary for the more common proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers.

Ecolectro's technology combines the high performance of PEM electrolysis with the cost advantages of traditional alkaline electrolysis. This allows for the production of green hydrogen at a price that can compete with hydrogen produced from fossil fuels. The company's business model is to sell its membranes and catalysts to electrolyzer manufacturers. The target market is the growing green hydrogen industry, which is being driven by the need to decarbonize the transportation, industrial, and energy sectors.
