Hy tech power systems

Is HyTech power a good investment?

And though HyTech Power, where Johnson serves as CTO, obviously seeks financial success, Johnson sees its products as something more: a way to use hydrogen to immediately reduce pollution while scaling up and driving down costs enough to enable more fundamental changes to the energy system.

Does HyTech power have hydrogen injectors?

A stationary diesel generator with HyTech’s hydrogen injectors installed. HyTech Power, based in Redmond, Washington, intends to introduce three products over the next year or two.

What is a HyTech electrolyzer?

A HyTech electrolyzer (in this case, attached to a stationary diesel generator). It’s not much to look at, just a tube filled with distilled water. Suspended roughly in the center is a small titanium plate coated with a bespoke mix of electrocatalysts optimized to pull hydrogen and oxygen apart.

Will HyTech succeed?

HyTech will need much more than clever technology to succeed. It will need good execution. To that end, it has recently attracted the backing of several seasoned Boeing executives, including Jerry Allyne, who spent 30 years at Boeing and came out of semi-retirement in December to lead HyTech’s scale-up as COO.

Is HyTech launching energy storage?

Finally, funded and capitalized by its retrofit products, HyTech will launch into energy storage. Its Scaleable Energy Storage (SES) product is meant to compete with big batteries like Tesla’s Powerwall, either as on-site storage for homes and businesses or as grid-scale storage attached to large solar and wind farms.

How does HyTech SES work?

Here’s how HyTech’s SES works: Power comes in (from solar panels or wind turbines, ideally) to run the electrolyzer. The hydrogen produced either goes into a fuel cell (yes, Johnson built his own) or is bonded as hydrides and stored in a tank.
