Tlou and hydrogen technology partner Synergen Met are collaborating on the Lesedi Power Project (“Lesedi”) to combine large, established natural gas reserves with abundant solar energy to produce green hydrogen, thereby providing a complementary range of cleaner and greener power generation options. The Company has signed a 10MW Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Botswana Power Corporation, and the power dispatched under this PPA will assist in the displacement of existing carbon-intensive power. Transmission lines connecting Lesedi to the existing electricity grid are expected to be completed in 2023. The prototype hydrogen production unit is currently being designed, built, and tested…

Ceres Power Holdings has partnered with RFC Power Limited, a long-duration energy storage provider. As an early stage startup, RFC aims to produce the world’s lowest cost flow battery, which is a hybrid fuel cell/battery that separates power and energy. It is a proprietary hydrogen manganese chemistry that promises cheap cost, great round-trip efficiency, and an extraordinarily long cycle life. Long-duration energy storage technologies like hydrogen and flow batteries can help decarbonize the energy system and achieve net zero carbon. Mark Selby, Ceres’ Chief Innovation Officer, will now join the RFC Board. He will use Ceres’ expertise in technology licensing…
