Cipher Neutron and University of Alberta secure funding to advance clean hydrogen technology in Alberta.

Cipher Neutron Inc. (CipherNeutron) and the Energy Materials Research Group (NRGMATs) at the University of Alberta, Canada, have been awarded funding from Alberta Innovates (AI) through Advancing Hydrogen – Competition 2. This is part of the second round of funding available under the Hydrogen Centre of Excellence, partnered with Natural Resources Canada’s Office of Energy Research and Development and Emissions Reduction Alberta (ERA) through its Accelerating Hydrogen competition. The project aims to use 3D de-alloyed porous catalysts to enhance the efficiency and current density of AEM electrolyser, accelerating their development and commercialization of Cipher Neutrons’ AEM Electrolyser on a large scale. The funding will be used to build a sustainable and self-sufficient clean hydrogen economy in Alberta.
