GeoPura™
Siemens Energy Ventures is a minority investor in GeoPura alongside GM Ventures, Barclays Sustainable Impact Capital and SWEN CP through its fund SWEN Impact Fund for Transition 2.
GeoPura provides hydrogen-fuelled clean energy to enable its customers to decarbonize their consumption of temporary, backup, off-grid, and grid augmentation energy.
It utilizes its proprietary Hydrogen Power Unit(“HPU”) in collaboration with Siemens Energy (UK) and a network of hydrogen production sites.
The GeoPura solution uses renewable energy, normally solar PV or wind, to create hydrogen for use as a fuel. This fuel is then transported to locations where a transportable “hydrogen power unit” converts it to electrical power. From start to finish the process is clean and carbon free – the only by-product is pure water.
By replacing fossil fuels with zero emission alternatives in power generation applications, the GeoPura Hydrogen Power Unit can be utilized in current high-use diesel industries such as construction, infrastructure, outdoor events, EV charging and back-up power. GeoPura generates hydrogen and transports the fuel to customers for use in its HPUs – customers simply rent the units and pay for the fuel used. Current sustainability-driven customers include Balfour Beatty, HS2, National Grid and the BBC.
Green hydrogen is too often seen as a technology that will happen in the future, but GeoPura and our partners are delivering a commercially viable technology, today. The world can’t afford to wait a decade for green fuels to scale.
