Nu:ionic Technologies and RW Energy announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to accelerate H₂ production and advance carbon capture initiatives nationwide. The partnership aims to implement low-carbon energy solutions in multiple U.S. energy park locations.

RW Energy, an energy park development company, will lead and oversee project identification, facility design, business development and will provide expertise in sustainable and distributed capacity energy solutions. 

Nu:ionic will supply modular, pre-engineered low-carbon H₂ production equipment featuring the Nu-X Smart ReformerSM with integrated carbon capture. The Nu:ionic equipment produces high purity H₂ and cryogenic liquid byproduct carbon dioxide as industrial grade which can be readily transported for sequestration or utilization.

The strategic locations for the initial fleet of low-carbon H₂ projects are slated for development in Northern California, the Gulf Coast of Texas and Ohio. These locations were selected based on factors including the existing infrastructure, market demand and regulatory environment. All sites will employ Nu:ionic’s Teal H2™ production equipment with capacities ranging from 1.2 tpd to 6 tpd. RW Energy estimates the projects will come online as early as the fourth quarter, 2025. 

Nu:ionic’s Nu-X Smart Reformer is a compact, electrified natural gas or renewable raw biogas reformer that enables cost-effective production of low-carbon H₂ at distributed capacities. The combination of low-cost natural gas with carbon capture, and the electrification of the combustion source results in a low-carbon H₂ offering at a competitive market price. 

Darin Knicely, CEO RW Energy said, “The use of Nu:ionic’s technology enables RW Energy to integrate renewable resources into methane-based H₂ production and offers a cost-effective and near-term pathway to low carbon energy solutions.” 

Jan Boshoff, CEO at Nu:ionic, commented, “Nu-X is available today, and our collaboration with RW Energy provides an opportunity to deliver Nu:ionic’s unique value proposition of low-carbon H₂ solutions at truly distributed production capacity to multiple U.S. locations.”
