The primary issues with the storage of hydrogen for heavy industry usage relate to efficiency and cost. Dr Jehan Kanga, discovered advanced materials while completing a PhD at the University of Sydney, aims to overcome these two core issues and assist with the global clean energy revolution. Dr Kanga has had a successful career at KPMG prior to Rux Energy. These breakthrough nanoporous materials in next-generation carbon composites assist with advanced hydrogen storage, achieving significant step-changes in the efficiency, safety and cost of hydrogen storage. This technology allows for the storage of near-liquid hydrogen densities at moderate conditions, with zero boil-off, in a way that is 10 times more energy efficient and far cheaper than the current offerings. This would greatly assist with an underlying goal of shifting to a low-cost green hydrogen economy by the end of this decade, and with broader climate change-related efforts. The technology has now been commercialised and Rux Energy formed, with a goal to reduce the cost of storage and distribution of hydrogen to $US1/kg H2 by 2030, representing a 10 times decrease.
