Proton Energy Systems® is a global leader in hydrogen technology that delivers bold, innovative energy solutions. It’s patented cost-effective, proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis technology provides the hydrogen production solutions to meet the unique requirements of our customers and to satisfy world supply needs. When generated using readily available water and renewable generated electricity, hydrogen fuel holds the promise of zero carbon and greenhouse gas emissions as well as energy independence and security in the transportation sector.
We are looking to demonstrate home hydrogen refuelling systems with partners including:
- Utilities – interested in developing new revenue streams in providing fuel for vehicles
- Governments – looking to develop hydrogen infrastructure and new low carbon industries
- Fuel Cell Vehicle Developers – looking to trial and prove the concept of home refuelling for their vehicles and remove the obstacle of limited hydrogen infrastructure
Advantages of Home Refuelling Systems with On-site Hydrogen Production
- Utilities / Oil & Gas
- Diversify revenue stream to incorporate fuel production and supply
- With widespread deployment, systems can be used in conjunction with a smart grid to manage grid over capacity
- Enables existing fuel suppliers to retain ownership of fuel production and supply
- Investment in infrastructure is directly proportional to growth in vehicle sales
- User
- Vehicles can be fuelled overnight at potentially lower costs than at fuelling stations
- Domestic renewables can be used to generate fuel
- Governments
- Enables adoption of zero-emission vehicles, improving the health of the community
- Develop new low carbon industries and jobs
- Simplifies deployment of hydrogen infrastructure and vehicles

Experience
Proton Energy Systems is the world’s leading supplier of on-site hydrogen generators utilizing PEM technology. As a trusted hydrogen provider and an innovative technology leader, Proton has been awarded contracts spanning multiple industries to meet a diverse set of needs. For example, the U.S Army’s Tank-Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC) recently awarded a contract to Proton Energy Systems to develop an advanced hydrogen fuelling system capable of sustaining a military fleet of hydrogen-powered vehicles. A recently opened fuelling station near the New York metropolitan area uses Proton’s FuelGen onsite hydrogen generation systems
