Following a successful and thorough year-long evaluation process, Verdagy, a leading renewable hydrogen electrolysis company, has announced Shell’s technical endorsement of its eDynamic® electrolyzers. With over a decade of technology development expertise, Verdagy has gained recognition as a qualified supplier for Shell’s upcoming green hydrogen initiatives.

Shell’s endorsement comes after a comprehensive assessment, including a hazard and operability study focusing on safety, as well as detailed design and technology development reviews of Verdagy’s electrolyzers. These evaluations are crucial steps towards commercial adoption within Shell’s projects.

Andrew Beard, vice president of hydrogen at Shell, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “Verdagy has developed dynamic and cost-competitive electrolyzers suitable for infrastructure-scale projects. We are pleased with the results of our evaluations and look forward to further collaboration with Verdagy.”

Shell’s technical assessments covered Verdagy’s 20-megawatt eDynamic Electrolysis system, evaluating aspects such as performance, stability, and safety. Verdagy’s scalable electrolyzer technology serves as a foundation for larger renewable hydrogen installations, reaching capacities of 100 MW and beyond.

Marty Neese, CEO of Verdagy, expressed satisfaction with the collaboration’s outcome, stating, “The successful completion of this year-long collaboration marks an important milestone for both Verdagy and Shell. We anticipate widespread adoption of Verdagy’s advanced electrolyzers in the industry following Shell’s endorsement.”

Verdagy’s electrolyzers boast the lowest levelized cost of hydrogen by leveraging high current densities, broad operating ranges, and rapid response capabilities, enabling seamless integration with renewable power sources. Committed to advancing renewable hydrogen production, Verdagy aims to achieve the US Department of Energy’s cost target of $2/kg by 2026. The company has recently been awarded a $39.6 million grant (pending negotiations) by the Department of Energy to expedite the high-volume manufacturing of Advanced Alkaline Water Electrolysis eDynamic Electrolyzers.
