Decentralized Utility Reservation and Production Network
Achieving Ontario's net-zero goals, balancing energy flow, enhancing grid stability, and promoting localized energy production to mitigate unplanned power outages to create a more resilient and sustainable energy system.
Energy Storage Systems
Hydrogen
Storing energy in the form of hydrogen gas, providing long-term storage solutions and versatility across various applications, zero-carbon footprint when produced sustainably. Hydrogen storage is highlighted for its potential in clean and sustainable energy management.
Lithium-ion
Lithium-ion batteries are widely used for their high energy density and efficiency, making them the go-to choice for portable electronics and electric vehicles. However, they face challenges related to resource availability, safety risks and service life.
Solid State
Solid-state batteries offer a promising alternative, utilizing a solid electrolyte to enhance safety, energy density, and longevity, but they are still in the early stages of development and production scalability.
Why Hydrogen?
Hydrogen is a clean, zero-emission energy source that produces only water as a byproduct when used in fuel cells, significantly reducing carbon emissions and air pollution. As the most abundant element in the universe, hydrogen can be produced from various sources such as water, natural gas, biomass, and industrial waste. It plays a crucial role in energy storage, particularly for renewable sources like wind and solar, allowing for surplus energy to be stored and utilized during periods of high demand. Its versatility extends across multiple sectors, powering fuel cell vehicles, serving as a feedstock in chemical processes, and providing heat for industries that are hard to electrify. Additionally, hydrogen contributes to grid stability by balancing excess energy and supplying power during peak demand. It is vital for decarbonizing heavy industries like steel production and shipping, replacing fossil fuels to reduce carbon footprints. Investing in hydrogen production enhances energy independence, decreasing reliance on imported fossil fuels and bolstering energy security.
The Approach
We are committed to reducing the ecological footprint and ensuring clean energy availability. Hydrogen (H2) technology has emerged as a vital component, prompting government incentives for private sector involvement in H2 projects. Our Decentralized Utility Reservation Network will store energy in the form of hydrogen gas during off-peak periods, ready to be called upon by Toronto Hydro to provide electricity within milliseconds as part of the supply interruption prevention and peak shaving grid balancing work. During peak demand periods, the Network will also continuously supply stored net zero green energy back to IESO, utilizing minimal transmission lines due to its strategically placed locations.
