Start-up H2 heating technology company HYTING has announced Flusys GmbH as its first customer. This key milestone represents not only a significant development in HYTING’s strategic growth, but also affirmation that H2 can help to displace natural gas as a cleaner, more sustainable source of heating for commercial and residential buildings.
Installation and commissioning will take place early 2025, in Flusys’ newly-established production facility for precision pumps in Offenbach, Germany. The 1,000 cubic-meter production space will be heated using H2 from a nearby supplier.
An expert in fluid system technology and a supplier of industrial systems. Flusys has many years of extensive experience with H2 technologies. A firm believer in the future of H2, Flusys was open to innovations in this fast-growing sector and to be positioned as an early adopter of the latest developments of safe, energy-efficient and sustainable heating solutions.
Tim Hannig, Founder and Managing Director of HYTING, said, “We are certain that H2 will help decarbonize the heating sector. By radically simplifying the use of H2’s thermal energy we developed an innovative H2-fueled heating technology that is simple, safe, efficient and clean and that will lead the way. We’re very proud that Flusys has chosen us, and we look forward to commissioning our technology at the Offenbach facility.”
“We are delighted to be a lighthouse customer of HYTING. The technology immediately fascinated and excited us. We hope to be able to give a boost to this new CO2-free technology,” said Carsten Neutzer, CEO of Flusys GmbH.
HYTING's innovative concept offers a simple, safe, efficient and clean way to generate heat directly from H2, without combustion. The start-up has developed a forced-air heating system (patents-pending) that uses a unique catalytic process to turn H2 and oxygen from air into heat and which does not produce any CO2, NOx or particulate emissions, the only byproduct is water. Furthermore, it does not use flammable concentrations of H2 at any operating point.
The technology is as robust and cost-effective as it is innovative because it uses many proven, existing components from the heating and automotive industries. It’s also modular and highly scalable in design, with outputs of 10 kW−300 kW, enabling it to be configured for a wide range of different heating applications, including industrial, commercial and residential buildings, both new-builds and retrofits, agricultural greenhouses, portable heating units and heating systems for commercial vehicles.
