Verne

Check out this week's episode of the FreightWaves Truck Tech podcast to learn about about Verne's breakthrough technology and its role in decarbonizing heavy-duty transportation!

Verne is excited to announce our partnership with LifeGuard Technologies to develop hoses for cryo-compressed hydrogen fueling! This partnership represents Verne’s continued investment in enabling the full ecosystem of suppliers for cryo-compressed hydrogen fueling solutions. Heavy-duty transportation is responsible for 12% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. Cryo-compressed hydrogen increases vehicle range and payload, enabling heavy-duty vehicles to transition to zero emission operations without sacrificing performance.

Verne is excited to announce our partnership with Cryostar to develop “future-proofed” heavy-duty hydrogen stations! Cryostar, a leading developer of cryogenic pumps, and Verne will develop and demonstrate technology capable of dispensing both compressed hydrogen and cryo-compressed hydrogen. This allows fueling stations to support compressed hydrogen fueling today and to accommodate a transition to cryo-compressed hydrogen in the future. Verne and Cryostar’s partnership is an important step towards building the high-density hydrogen fueling infrastructure needed to decarbonize the trucking sector!

Verne is looking forward to the World Hydrogen Energy Conference WHEC next week in Mexico! Verne Co-founder & CTO David Jaramillo is co-chairing the hydrogen storage track with Verne advisor and hydrogen storage pioneer Salvador Aceves. 🔹David is giving a Keynote presentation on developments in cryo-compressed hydrogen for heavy-duty trucking 🔹Sal is presenting Verne’s latest technical results Please reach out if you will be in attendance! #hydrogen #greenhydrogen #WHEC

At the Canadian Hydrogen Convention, Co-Founder & COO Bav Roy highlighted some of the reasons Verne is conducting our first Class 8 truck demonstration in Alberta. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gXPyuRzY Edmonton Global Alberta Innovates Alberta Motor Transport Association

Verne received an award to develop cryo-compressed hydrogen solutions for the U.S. Army. The U.S. military is the largest consumer of oil in the world, emitting more than 50m tons of CO2 per year. The U.S. Department of Defense has played an integral role developing technologies from semiconductors to GPS to the internet. Hydrogen is an alternative fuel that can be generated onsite, removing reliance on complex supply chains. CcH2 can extend vehicle range without adding weight to the vehicle.

Verne is thrilled to be attending the Wilkes Center for Climate Science and Policy Summit and to be one of 7 finalists for the Climate Launch Prize. The Climate Launch Prize supports first-of-a-kind projects for innovative climate technologies. Verne is developing the high-density hydrogen storage solution required to decarbonize the 12% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions coming from heavy-duty transportation.

The hidden 85%: How to make hydrogen cost-effective Ted McKlveen and Bav Roy point out that delivery and refueling are responsible for a staggering 85% of hydrogen costs in transportation, with hydrogen production accounting for just 15% of final costs! "Investing in cost reductions across the entire hydrogen value chain, and not just in hydrogen production, will enable hydrogen to displace diesel fuel and usher in a new era of heavy-duty transportation."

In case you missed it: Verne Co-founder & CTO David Jaramillo wrote about the importance of encouraging scientists to commercialize their research and form innovative startups. While David was completing his PhD in Materials Chemistry at University of California, Berkeley, David and Verne were lucky to receive support from Stanford University (TomKat Center), Caltech, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Breakthrough Energy Fellows. Investing in more programs to develop scientist-to-founder ecosystems is the best way to address some of the world’s toughest problems and achieve energy abundance!

🚚 Verne is excited to announce this first-of-a-kind project to demonstrate a Class 8 Truck powered by cryo-compressed hydrogen! 📊 Cryo-compressed hydrogen maximizes hydrogen density, extending range and payload for Class 8 Trucks and other heavy-duty vehicles that need to travel long distances and haul heavy loads. 🤝 Verne is grateful to have received a grant from Alberta Innovates and to be working with several other important partners to complete this project.
