Versogen gets funding for clean hydrogen tech development
As part of a regional initiative to access a carbon-free fuel source, Versogen, a startup company that is making progress in the manufacture of clean hydrogen, is scheduled to receive a portion of $4.7 million.
The U.S. Department of Energy named the spin-off firm as one of four Delaware institutions to receive substantial federal funding for clean hydrogen production, research, and distribution.
To create a more robust and efficient anion-exchange membrane, Versogen has partnered with the University of Delaware, University of California Berkeley, De Nora Technologies North America, and University of Oregon. Versogen’s membranes are revolutionary because they can do away with the need for pricy components like catalysts made of platinum group metals. In the end, this would lower the cost of producing clean hydrogen for

Lambton College receives Hydrogen Digital Innovator Award
Lambton College, in partnership with Mohawk College, Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT), Holland College, and Nova Scotia Community College (NSCC), was honored to receive the Hydrogen Digital Innovator Award at the Annual Canadian Hydrogen Convention last week in Edmonton, Alberta. Lambton College recognizes the critical role that digital innovation plays in advancing the hydrogen industry.
The Hydrogen Digital Innovator Award honours Lambton College’s and its partner institutions’ ground-breaking contributions to the application of digital learning in the energy sector. The cooperative project, which received funding from the Canadian Colleges for a Resilient Recovery (C2R2) coalitions, produced two innovative web-based micro-credentials that are designed to assist professionals in the energy sector in making the switch to hydrogen-fueled power for industrial processing.
