SOLHYD Belgium

Description

Solhyd is an impact startup that produces renewable hydrogen gas directly from air and sunlight. Solhyd’s unique technology was developed at the university of Leuven. Its hydrogen panels capture water from the air and energy from the sun. It is a modular technology, which enables large-scale solar hydrogen production as well as decentralized applications, e.g. to improve energy access in remote communities. Based in Belgium, the company has worldwide traction with a focus on the European and African continents.

Role in the project

Solhyd’s technology will be used for clean cooking solutions. The hydrogen panels will be adapted to ensure they meet the needs of local communities, with a strong focus on safety, cost reduction and robustness. The final solution will be environmentally sustainable and will have the possibility for remote monitoring.
