I am pleased to share an update on the business development strategies that SunHydrogen is deploying to enhance shareholder value and contribute to the ever-growing opportunities within the hydrogen market.
Earlier this year, SunHydrogen unveiled the largest version to-date of our technology, the world’s first-ever nanoparticle-based green hydrogen generator.
This prototype is currently the only self-contained nanoparticle-based hydrogen generation device of its kind that splits water molecules into high-purity green hydrogen and oxygen using the sun’s energy.
Just like a solar panel is comprised of multiple cells that generate electricity, our hydrogen panel encases multiple hydrogen generators immersed in water.
