HYDROGEN
It would be difficult to imagine life without hydrogen. It is the lightest atom, with the simplest structure, and yet accounts for ca. 75% of the total mass in the Universe. A large part of the energy available on Earth comes from hydrogen, as during a nuclear fusion occurring in the Sun hydrogen nuclei are combined to form helium, with large amounts of energy emitted at the same time.
In practice, there are several colors of hydrogen. Depending on the raw material and the process used for obtaining hydrogen, it may turn out to be more or less environmentally friendly.

How is green hydrogen obtained?
Clean hydrogen energy
The cleanest hydrogen is obtained through water electrolysis. To initiate the chemical reaction, electricity from renewable sources, such as wind farms or photovoltaics, needs to be used. Electricity flowing through water splits its particles into hydrogen [H2] and oxygen [O2]. Next, the hydrogen is stored in a gaseous or liquid form and subsequently utilized in a fuel cell.
ADVANTAGES OF HYDROGEN
It is inexhaustible
Hydrogen is obtained by electrolysis of water. This means that as long as we have water on Earth, the availability of hydrogen is infinite.
It is a source of energy
1 kg of hydrogen releases over 4 times more energy than 1 kg of coal and almost 2.5 times more than 1 kg of petrol.
It complements energy from renewable sources
Hydrogen provides for long-term electricity storage options.
It is clean
The use of hydrogen in a fuel cell does not cause emissions of carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides into the atmosphere.
It is light
Its high density makes hydrogen easy to store. It can be stored as a gas or a liquid, which offers attractive development opportunities.

HYDROGEN TECHNOLOGIES
Eneria supports the development of hydrogen technologies
Monnoyeur and Eneria established the cooperation with Energy Observer Developments. As a result, first hydrogen power generators have been added to our product range.
The GEH2® hydrogen power generator is an independent, zero-emission hydrogen powered device, the advantages of which include, inter alia, low noise level, no unpleasant odours, immediate start.
Eneria is a distributor of GEH2 hydrogen power generators by EODev in France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Poland, Romania and Algeria. The industrial partnership between EODev and Eneria will accelerate industrial manufacture, implementation and post-sale maintenance management for the GEH2® hydrogen power generator.
For Eneria, it is the next step to provide specific solutions having a positive impact on the environment.
