About us
Our technology allows cost-competitive
and large-scale hydrogen production
Sakowin initially started making H2 through water electrolysis, but now produces sustainable hydrogen that is both cost-competitive and energetically efficient thanks to the use of biomethane or natural gas as feedstock. The innovative technology’s main benefits are its zero CO2 emissions and the ability to produce H2 on-site and on-demand.
Our company
Sakowin Green Energy is a Deeptech founded in 2017. Being convinced that hydrogen is an essential lever in the energy transition, Sakowin is today strengthening its role as a pioneer in the production of decarbonized hydrogen through methane plasmalysis.
Depending on the methane source, i.e. natural gas or biomethane, Sakowin’s technology is negative or neutral in CO2 emissions. The technology uses 5 times less electricity than water electrolysis to produce the same amount of hydrogen at a more competitive cost with no use of water – resource whose preservation is essential in the fight against the climate change.
Sakowin’s equipment is compact, modular, and stackable. As such, the technological brick can be integrated into existing industrial and gas infrastructures, for on-site & on demand hydrogen production, with a capacity that can be easily adjusted according to the need of the different end-users and their facilities.
The co-production of solid carbon, with potential use in industrial and environmental applications, e.g., construction materials, agriculture, together with the use of biomethane which enables to produce hydrogen that is not only decarbonized but also negative in terms of CO2 emissions, prove Sakowin’s technology as a model of energy efficiency, circularity, and sustainability.
