Systems Analysis
| Novel Technology Integration | The Climate Impact Capital's innovation platform is based on a long-view investment and risk management philosophy. CIC incorporates a system dynamics approach to develop deep industry and company-level technology pathways and product category domains.
We focus on the intersection of long-term trends and emerging disruptions from climate change and the energy transition that will cause acute and chronic losses to companies, investors, and society. Many risks are not yet well understood as they are tied to underlying changes and pivot points that will occur in our financial, social, and environmental ecosystems.
CIC's process is beneficial for long-view investors, whether the aim is corporate profitability, value defense, national security, or capital growth as we see value creation intrinsically tied to reducing environmental impact and creating resiliency.
Looking at the total impact and system for hydrogen is a fundamental aspect of our diligence and process design. This includes the ability to generate and transmit power, access water, transport hydrogen, and then utilize it effectively.
We use system dynamics thinking to develop industry and company-level technology pathways and product category domains. These are the backbone upon which we evaluate technology, asset, social and regulatory risks to create structured investment and technology trial options for technology acceleration.
Completing the process, we bring together business, non-profit, government, and technology (e.g. start-up company) stakeholders to create long-term financial and strategic resiliency, environmental impacts, and American business growth opportunities. |

| 2. Onboard Storage Systems for Liquid Hydrogen, 3. Liquid Hydrogen Transfer/Fueling Components and Systems. | LLNL has been performing research on liquid and cryo-compressed hydrogen storage technology for more than 20 years. LLNL has a test facility with a 3,000 gallon LH2 hydrogen storage tank and a liquid hydrogen pump capable of pumping hydrogen at 120 kg/h, 80 g/L and 875 bar. This system can be used to rapidly fill and cycle cryogenic vessels. LLNL’s hydrogen test facility also includes a containment vessel capable of cycle and burst testing full-sized vessels that are not rated with expansion energy up to 1.86 kg of TNT. The containment vessel is sealed from the environment and vessel tests can be conducted under a vacuum, therefore enabling vessel testing with hydrogen or other flammable gases. The facility is remotely operated from a control room enabling efficient and safe operation. |

Area of Interest — Hydrogen Carrier Development
Methanol as a Hydrogen Carrier: On-Demand, Onsite, and Economical Production of High-Purity Hydrogen
Element 1 Corporation has developed a proprietary process and a family of products for economically converting a mixture of methanol and water into high-purity hydrogen at the point of use. The product hydrogen meets ISO 14687:2019 (Type I, Grade A, B, D, and E) purity standards for use in combustion engines, low-temperature fuel cells, and compression for dispensing onto fuel cell vehicles. Methanol-to-hydrogen generators have been deployed on heavy-duty vehicles, stationary fuel cell power generators, and is being deployed on working boats (tug/tow boats). Initial work is underway to support the hydrogen needs of aviation both on the ground-side (infrastructure) and onboard aircraft.
The methanol-to-hydrogen reforming technology can be deployed today for fixed electrical charging stations (grid-tied or grid-independent) and/or direct hydrogen production at point of use, without a requirement for connection to the electrical grid.
Methanol is a widely available and relatively inexpensive feedstock. Unlike hydrogen, methanol is easily and inexpensively transported via ship, rail, tanker truck, and drums similar to transportation of gasoline, diesel and jet fuels. Methanol is liquid under all environmental conditions and does not require expensive infrastructure, or high energy needs as with cryogenic liquefied hydrogen or compressed hydrogen at 5,000 to 10,000 psi (350 to 700 Bar). These factors make methanol an ideal hydrogen carrier to locally produce hydrogen safely, efficiently, and economically. This process represents a 30% to 75% reduction in the cost of hydrogen at the point of use versus liquefied or gaseous hydrogen, with significant savings in the cost of transportation.
Cost of hydrogen produced on demand from methanol at point of use is $5 to $7 USD/kg hydrogen vs. $15 to $18+ USD/kg hydrogen (as compressed hydrogen).
Methanol is the largest volume non-petroleum-based fuel commodity shipped globally. It has been traded internationally for over 50 years. Thanks to its broad range of industrial uses (thousands of everyday products use methanol including |
