The company, founded in 2021, said the funds from the Industry Growth Program will be used to expand local supply chains to support national desires of reducing technology imports.
Endua currently makes electrolysers 28–272kW in size, designed for decentralised, on-site deployments to reduce hydrogen transportation and storage costs.
The systems comprise water treatment, power supply, stacks, and purification. Endua said they have an efficiency of 58kWh/kg H2.
The company said the plug-and-play systems were “tailored” for mobility, remote power, and feedstock applications.
The electrolysers also underpin Endua’s energy storage systems, which combine the stack, electrical and control systems, and a fuel cell to produce hydrogen during periods of renewable generation before turning it back to electricity when required.
Built in Queensland, Endua is attempting to onshore much of its supply chain through its Advanced Hydrogen Electrolyser for Australian Decarbonisation (AHEAD) project.
CEO Paul Sernia, said the funding would support the development of those supply chains and position the company to “capture future growth opportunities both in Australia and internationally.”
The company has already deployed a demonstration energy storage unit at Archerfield Airport in Queensland to test the system’s capabilities.
