While the vast investment in low-carbon hydrogen has been focused on production, the missing piece to commercialization lies in its storage and transportation. In our long search for the best solution to address this challenge, all approaches fell short until we met Natasha Kostenuk, P.Eng and Brandy Kinkead, PhD, founders of Ayrton Energy. Our latest addition to our portfolio, Ayrton has developed a technology that can safely and effectively store and transport hydrogen while using existing infrastructure – eliminating the need for new pipelines, trucks, or storage units. CEV’s Yi Jean Chow and Ariel Hyre, Ph.D. dive into how Ayrton is filling a crucial gap in the hydrogen market in our latest “Why We Invested” piece: https://lnkd.in/gcSD27Ny
