Running Hot and Cold: Hydrogen fuel cells pass the test
As industrial operations look for opportunities to decrease their carbon emissions, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles and battery-electric vehicles have emerged as potential solutions. These power options generate zero carbon emissions at the tailpipe and are available for a growing range of vehicle types. They also meet new emissions requirements for industrial vehicles. However, for fleet […]
An Introduction to Steam-Methane Reformation
At OneH2, our principal method of producing hydrogen is by steam-methane reformation or a variant of this known as autothermal reformation. While this process has existed for many years, increased interest in and demand for hydrogen fuel has brought SMR into the center of conversations about the future of the energy sector. As developers of […]
GM and Honda Begin Commercial Fuel Cell Production
Recently, General Motors (GM) and Honda announced the start of commercial production at the two companies’ joint hydrogen fuel cell manufacturing facility, Fuel Cell System Manufacturing, LLC (FCSM). The initiative launched in January 2017, with a joint investment of $85 million. Housed in a 70,000-square-foot facility in Brownstone, Michigan, FCSM will produce hydrogen systems for […]

The cylinder technology, a culmination of several years of development and investment, operates under a unique special permit issued by the U.S Department of Transport for use on roads. While OneH2 has been operating fleets of 520 bar […]
First Steps to Expanding Hydrogen Market: Chevron
Longview, NC – Hydrogen is expected to play a key role in a lower carbon future. But like many developing energy sources, it comes with a chicken-or-the-egg conundrum. Which comes first—hydrogen fueling stations and infrastructure or the vehicles that rely on hydrogen power? Chevron is one of the leading investors in a new round of […]
GM and Komatsu Partner for Hydrogen-Powered Mining Truck
On December 12, 2023, General Motors and the Japan-based manufacturing equipment company Komatsu announced a development partnership for hydrogen fuel cells. As an advocate for hydrogen fuel solutions, OneH2 is excited about the innovation that will come from the partnership of these two leading manufacturers and the opportunities it will bring to the industry. Michigan-based […]
Shipping Industry Explores Hydrogen Fuel Options
Due to the long distances traveled, and 24/7 operations, the maritime shipping industry is a significant contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions. As the industry seeks to decrease emissions, many companies are exploring the potential hydrogen holds to power ships and other marine vessels. Keep reading to learn about two recent initiatives launched by Future […]
Hydrogen Storage and Transportation Solutions
Methods for storing and transporting hydrogen can vary widely depending on the use case. Today, most hydrogen-powered vehicles utilize some form of onboard hydrogen storage in the form of tanks. These tanks typically store compressed gaseous hydrogen at a pressure of 350 or 700 bar (5,000 and 10,000 psi). Passenger cars and other light-duty vehicles […]
The Impact of Hydrogen on Powered Industrial Vehicles
Today’s material handling operations require reliable fleets of powered industrial vehicles (PIVs). These fleets are usually powered by internal combustion engines (ICEs) or battery-electric vehicles (BEVs). Both of these options create several operational and logistical challenges. However, technological improvements in hydrogen fuel and fuel cells have created an alternative fuel source for PIVs. A recent […]
International Hydrogen Initiatives
As countries worldwide seek to lower their carbon emissions, many public and private initiatives are underway to expand the use of hydrogen fuel. Because it creates zero carbon emissions at the tailpipe and offers greater efficiency and operational benefits than many battery-electric alternatives, hydrogen fuel is a viable solution for many countries’ sustainability efforts. To […]
