CLEEN Energy AG's CLEEN zeero, the first series-ready solution for hydrogen storage systems, has been brought onto the market in Austria.

CLEEN zeero is a hydrogen storage system for trade, industry and private households from 330 kWh, in which excess sustainably produced electricity is used to generate hydrogen by means of electrolysis. If necessary, the stored hydrogen is then used to generate electricity using fuel cells. At the same time, the CLEEN zeero makes the process heat generated during electrolysis and combustion usable as heat for heating.

In combination with photovoltaic systems, hydrogen storage systems are ideal green electricity storage systems because no CO2 is released. Therefore, in the cold season of the year, the basic electricity utilization in Austria can also be covered in the future. Due to the integrated emergency power or black start capability, CLEEN zeero can take over in just 10ms in the event of a power failure and that without any mains supply.

The first projects with CLEEN zeero are already planned and will be implemented in the next few weeks. One of the first systems with the series-ready model should go into operation in the course of the next week at the company headquarters of CLEEN Energy in Haag. CLEEN Energy plans to make the storage system available to the broad market at the beginning of the second half of 2021, apart from already planned projects.
