About us
Ayrton Energy’s mission is to provide energy security fueled by hydrogen. Ayrton’s proprietary technology enables hydrogen to be stored within an organic liquid, which can be handled and transported no differently than gasoline. This straightforward storage approach enables hydrogen to be used as a power generating fuel to meet energy needs above grid capacity or in the case of power outage and enables hydrogen to be a viable replacement for diesel generators and lithium-ion batteries, further reducing grid pressure and providing a path for net-zero energy.

We’re excited to share Clean Energy Ventures’s latest “Why We Invested” feature, which highlights the crucial work we’re doing at Ayrton Energy to transform hydrogen storage and transportation. While much attention has been focused on hydrogen production, the key to full-scale commercialization lies in the ability to store and transport it safely and efficiently. Our innovative technology allows hydrogen to be stored and transported using existing infrastructure—no need for new pipelines or trucks. This milestone wouldn’t have been possible without the vision of our incredible team and the support of investors like CEV. Take a look at the full article to learn more about how Ayrton is tackling this challenge. https://lnkd.in/gcSD27Ny #hydrogen #sustainability #cleantech #energyinnovation #AyrtonEnergy #CEV
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
