Germany-headed start-up hydrogen heating technology company HYTING GmbH has announced Flusys GmbH as its first customer. This key milestone represents not only a significant development in HYTING’s strategic growth but also an affirmation that hydrogen can help displace fossil gas as a cleaner, more sustainable source of heating for commercial and residential buildings.
The start-up has developed a patent-pending forced-air heating system that uses a unique catalytic process in which hydrogen and oxygen from the air react to release heat.
This enables heating free from carbon dioxide (CO2), NOx, and particulate matter (PM) emissions across all performance ranges – the only by-product is water.
Furthermore, the catalytic process works at all operating points using non-flammable hydrogen concentrations below 3 percent.
Robust and cost-effective
According to HYTING, the technology is as robust and cost-effective as it is innovative and safe because it uses many proven, existing components from the heating and automotive industries.
It is also modular and highly scalable in design, with outputs of 10-300 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.
An ideal lighthouse customer
An expert in fluid system technology and a supplier of industrial systems. Flusys has many years of extensive experience with hydrogen technologies.
A firm believer in the future of hydrogen, 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.
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.
Installation and commissioning will take place in 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 hydrogen from a nearby supplier.
We are certain that hydrogen will help decarbonize the heating sector. By radically simplifying the use of hydrogen’s thermal energy we developed an innovative hydrogen-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, ended Tim Hannig, Founder and Managing Director of HYTING.
