Liberty Pier and AMBARtec cooperate on hydrogen storages for ships

Green hydrogen is increasingly discussed for ship propulsion. A special challenge is the storage of sufficient fuel capacities on board. Our HyCS-technology opens up entirely new prospects. The storage is compact and requires little installation space compared with other systems. It is pressureless and can be easily arranged below deck. Compared with approaches to integrate H2 in liquids such as ammonia, a significantly higher overall efficiency is achieved at rather moderate costs. Find press release here.
In order to provide this technology to ocean going vessels and inland waterway trades, AMBARtec and its consultant and maritime project developer Liberty Pier, Bremen signed a protocol of cooperation. The cooperation plans, among others, projects in the field of Blue Economy, particularly with a view to port management and logistics and for ocean going vessels and inland waterway trades. Both companies became involved in sustainable fuel solutions and are committed to the rapid change from conventional industrial standards to green alternatives.

Where does green electricity come from? How does electrolysis succeed? How can hydrogen be safely transported and stored? The 15th HYPOS Dialogue focuses on decentralised energy production and supply with green hydrogen. We'll be there. To meet us, register here >
As early as May 2021, the state of Saxony-Anhalt adopted a hydrogen strategy and presented a monitoring report on the implementation status one year later.

The 15th HYPOS Dialogue presents competent actors along the value chain from renewable energy production and electrolysis technologies to safe transport and storage options for green hydrogen. Finally, best practice examples from Saxony-Anhalt discuss challenges and experiences in the implementation process. In three steps, the participants will learn how to further develop project ideas with the right partners and, against the background of the best-practice projects, how to avoid mistakes and achieve a fast implementation perspective.

“H₂ storage in iron masses validated in practical tests” gwf 01/23

Does our HyCS technology live up to its promise? The practical test in our pilot plant shows positive results. The trade journal gwf Gas + Energie reports on this in its 01/2023 issue. Download the complete article here.
The efficient storage of electrical energy in the form of hydrogen is the key technology for implementing the energy transition. Our innovative HyCS technology for H2 storage in iron masses is a promising and cost-effective approach, which has been validated in practical tests in recent months. Initial results on the loading and unloading of the chemical H2 storage system show high temperature stability during the process.

First plant for storage of energy and hydrogen based on iron oxide successfully commissioned

DRESDEN/FREIBERG - 15 November 2022 - AMBARtec AG (Dresden), together with the EPC company Umwelt- und Ingenieurtechnik GmbH Dresden (UIT), has commissioned the first plant for the storage and transport of hydrogen based on iron oxide using the Hydrogen Compact Storage (HyCS®) process in the Saxon city of Freiberg.
The companies have implemented the demonstration for a hydrogen storage that is in addition to its compactness extremely efficient and sustainable. The strongly reduced water requirement for hydrogen production, the rapid storage and retrieval as well as the simple permitting procedures make the process very attractive.

Compact storage increases transportability
Compared to today’s storage technologies, AMBARtec’s HyCS process enables a much more compact storage and transport of energy and hydrogen. Up to 3 kWh of energy can be stored in one litre of storage material, whereas lithium-ion batteries currently only achieve 0.3 kWh/litre and liquid hydrogen 2 kWh/litre. The solution jointly implemented by UIT and AMBARtec makes the regional and international transport of H2 significantly easier and more cost-effective. Beyond transport, the HyCS process can contribute to becoming less dependent on supra-regional electricity and gas supplies in times of rising energy prices in combination with photovoltaic systems and/or heat pumps.

Technology with a lot of potential
HyCS technology offers enormous potential for increasing the efficiency of electricity storage compared to known H2-based solutions. Through clever integration with high-temperature electrolysers (SOEC) and fuel cells (SOFC), efficiencies of over 65 percent can be achieved, about twice as high as with established processes.

Constructive and trusting cooperation between the project partners The innovative process was first developed into a very detailed technical concept by AMBARtec AG and then implemented by Umwelt- und Ingenieurtechnik GmbH Dresden. Thanks to the cooperation of the individual specialist departments, the planning details were clarified in a targeted manner and the project was completed on time.

AMBARtec company founders Uwe Pahl and Matthias Rudloff, supported by Umwelt- und Ingenieurtechnik GmbH Dresden, have reached a major milestone: with the commissioning, they have provided technical proof that their process, developed over many years, can also be operated in a real plant. "We have already implemented all the components, control loops and safety systems in this plant that are required in real customer facilities," explains AMBARtec CTO Uwe Pahl. "After completing the test operation, we will systematically scale up the storage facility step by step over the next few months."

UIT Managing Director Lars Braun was also satisfied with the cooperation: "Together we have mastered this challenging project as project partners on an equal footing. Thanks to the constructive and trusting cooperation, we were able to react quickly to changing framework conditions. We are very satisfied with the completed plant in Freiberg. I would like to thank all UIT and AMBARtec employees for their excellent work." Storage with a capacity of 250 kWh can be supplied by AMBARtec AG as early as mid-2023, while storage with 3,000 kWh will be available from the end of 2023. Planning for projects with the HyCS standard module in a 20-feet container with a storage capacity of 20,000 kWh can already be kicked off now.

AMBARtec at Green Hydrogen Innovation Congress 2022 in Leipzig

On Nov. 2, 2022, the international trade congress "Green Hydrogen Innovation Congress 2022" will take place for the first time at the Congress Center Leipzig. We are there.
The hybrid trade and networking event is organised by the Saxon State Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Transport (SMWA) and aims at the professional exchange and supra-regional cooperation of industry, trade, transport, science and society in the rapidly developing field of "Green Hydrogen".

Innovative solutions and best practices from Saxony and European host regions will be presented to an international audience and their transferability will be jointly discussed in order to enable a rapid market ramp-up and thus support decarbonisation efforts in all sectors. In this way, the congress contributes to strengthening regional cooperation for a competitive Europe of the future.
