Smoltek’s IR blog

Wel­come to the Smoltek blog! Here, we write for share­hold­ers and prospec­tive investors. We expand on tech­ni­cal and finan­cial news, pro­vid­ing back­ground infor­ma­tion and clar­i­fy­ing what makes it note­wor­thy and how it affects our business.

The tone is infor­mal and some­times play­ful. That’s inten­tion­al. Our aim is to make it easy and enjoy­able for you to under­stand our tech­nol­o­gy and busi­ness. We believe that the most valu­able share­hold­ers and investors are those who under­stand our oper­a­tions and believe in what we do. This is a lot to ask, giv­en how tech­ni­cal­ly and com­mer­cial­ly advanced our work is. But we have faith in you.

Sure­ly, you know what a patent is. It’s the exclu­sive right to make, use, and sell an inven­tion, right? Gotcha! It’s not. It’s almost the oppo­site. I know it sounds crazy, but you will under­stand after read­ing this article.

Smolek has received patents for three brand-new inno­va­tions that all aim to improve the elec­tri­cal con­tact inside PEM elec­trolyz­ers, fuel cells, and bat­ter­ies. This arti­cle briefly explains the three inno­va­tions in layman’s terms. Hope­ful­ly, after read­ing, you will be as excit­ed as we are about the unique posi­tion Smoltek has gained in the clean ener­gy mar­ket with these patents.

The Hydrogen Ladder

Clean hydro­gen is essen­tial to lim­it glob­al warm­ing to below 2°C. Despite the influx of fund­ing, wide­spread adop­tion is dif­fi­cult due to the lim­it­ed avail­abil­i­ty of green elec­tric­i­ty. Michael Liebre­ich sug­gests pri­or­i­tiz­ing appli­ca­tions via his Hydro­gen Lad­der frame­work. In this blog post we explore its implications.

Clean hydro­gen is on the rise. In many areas, it’s one of the few, if not the only, viable solu­tions to reduce CO2 emis­sions. The areas of use are many and var­ied. Pro­vid­ing a com­plete list is impos­si­ble, as new appli­ca­tions are emerg­ing almost dai­ly. To give you a sense of how diverse the mar­ket is, this post describes the five key areas of hydro­gen appli­ca­tions, first at a glance and then in more detail. The post ends with a selec­tion of appli­ca­tions from the dif­fer­ent areas.

Fer­til­iz­er pro­duc­tion requires large amounts of hydro­gen. Today, 95 per­cent of this hydro­gen is pro­duced from fos­sil fuels, lead­ing to colos­sal green­house gas emis­sions of COâ‚‚. To save the Earth from more than 2 Â°C of glob­al warm­ing, politi­cians are using eco­nom­ic incen­tives to get the fer­til­iz­er indus­try to switch from fos­sil hydro­gen to clean hydro­gen pro­duced by elec­trolyz­ers. This makes the fer­til­iz­er indus­try one of the largest mar­kets for elec­trolyz­ers. In this blog post, we take a clos­er look at this lit­tle-known mar­ket, which, giv­en its size, is more inter­est­ing than many of the more well-known ones.
