The end-to-end liquefaction and storage solution can be used in a range of applications from transportation to energy backup to accelerate the use of liquid hydrogen.
The LS20 can produce between 2-20kg of liquid hydrogen per day to provide it at the ready, when and where it is needed, and it is self-sustaining and can run independently with a portable generator or plug into a buildings power source.
Capacity of 20kg of liquid hydrogen contains nearly 2400mj of energy and can be readily stored and used within GenH2’s ultralight utility tank systems.
Jong Baik, Chief Technology Officer of GenH2, said the development of the LS20 has been a culmination of decades of experience and engineering within and in conjunction with NASA.
He said, “Providing researchers and developers of hydrogen infrastructure with a modular, efficient way of getting their hands on liquid hydrogen is a vital requirement to advance the hydrogen economy.”
GenH2 claims the system is the smallest mobile unit currently available, and it can also be utilised as a lab setting for testing material, insulation, thermodynamic properties and use cases for their applications.
The key features of LS20 technology are convenient and safe liquid hydrogen production, D.O.T. approved 400-litre capacity liquid hydrogen storage tank with zero-boil-off storage feature and a fully automated liquid hydrogen production/storage level control and monitoring system.
Other benefits include zero-loss liquid-to-liquid transfer system with hydrogen gas recovery bag, detachable liquid hydrogen storage tank for separate liquid hydrogen transport and innovative quick-connect vacuum jacketed receptacles.
The US-based company announced last year they’d reached an agreement with Monfort Technology that will see the two collaborate to develop hydrogen solutions for both mass transit and long-haul trucking.
This project will see GenH2 manufacture hydrogen production, liquefaction, controlled storage and dispensing solutions to support fuelling infrastructure for buses and class 1-8 trucks.
GenH2 unveiled in 2021 plans for its global headquarters in Titusville, Florida, revealing the company will be producing liquid hydrogen and filling stations by this year.
