Leveraging its extensive network, LN INNOV' aims to streamline access to innovative energy projects like the one presented by Novacium and HPQ. Their goal is to connect key industry stakeholders and expedite the transition of innovative projects from the research and development phase to commercialization.
"France has set the goal of becoming the world leader in green hydrogen, considered an energy carrier that will play a key role in achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. Novacium's new hydrogen production system will help meet these objectives,” said Mrs. Nathalie MAZEAU, LN INNOV' CEO. “With its experience in autonomous energy systems, LN INNOV' wishes to democratize this technology through its simplified use and logistics, essential markers for its success.”
The goal of this three-party agreement is to harness LN INNOV's expertise and introduce Novacium's new, environmentally friendly high-pressure hydrogen production system via hydrolysis (as detailed in the September 7, 2023, press release) to French defense industry companies.
NOVACIUM TO PRESENT ITS HYDROGEN SOLUTION TO A GROUP OF FRENCH INDUSTRIALS
LN INNOV' has already arranged for Novacium to be invited to present its innovative hydrogen solution at the next Energy Working Group (EWG) meeting of the “Groupement des Industries Françaises de Défense et de Sécurité Terrestre et Aéroterrestre” (GICAT), scheduled for the last week of September 2023.
“Novacium's hydrogen production system stands out for its capacity to re-imagine hydrogen production, simplifying it while ensuring safety and minimizing transportation requirements,” said Mr. Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO of NOVACIUM SAS and HPQ Silicon Inc. “This innovation holds significant promise for hydrogen's role as a clean and secure energy source in diverse industrial and military applications.
