Hyzon Motors to collaborate with Transform Materials on renewable hydrogen production

Green Car Congress

Our solution is to co-invest in facilities that produce low-cost hydrogen at small volumes, and which can be built in a matter of months. Transform’s innovative technology avoids combustion entirely by turning these abundant resources into hydrogen, a carbon-free fuel, and into useful building-blocks for important industrial chemicals.
