H-Power at a glance

H‑Power delivers and deploys hydrogen production and hydrogen‑to‑power solutions at a commercially viable price.

Unlocking the low carbon hydrogen market

The global hydrogen economy has been held back by cost and infrastructure challenges. H-Power can unlock these.

We offer an end-to-end hydrogen production and hydrogen-to-power solution, engineered to unlock the clean hydrogen market by meeting customers’ needs with scalable, reliable technology and products. H‑Power is enabling customers to decarbonise at a price that is commercially viable without relying on government subsidies or incentives.

2006–2026: From AFC Energy to H‑Power

Engineering power systems to meet real‑world needs

H‑Power represents the commercial evolution of nearly two decades of hydrogen technology development, focused on transforming proven engineering into scalable, customer‑ready solutions.

Founded as AFC Energy in 2006, the company progressed from early fuel cell validation to integrated hydrogen solutions designed for industrial deployment, shaped by real‑world operating requirements and commercial performance expectations.

A major commercial breakthrough came in 2023, with independently validated 99.99% hydrogen purity from a single‑reactor ammonia cracker, establishing a practical, decentralised pathway for hydrogen generation without reliance on government subsidies, while removing traditional barriers to on‑site supply.

Today, H‑Power is positioned for scale, delivering modular hydrogen solutions for industry, transport and infrastructure that enable customers to replace diesel with confidence and support long‑term growth through commercially viable, low‑carbon power solutions.

Our business

Through consistent deployments, proven performance and partnerships that strengthen hydrogen availability and affordability, we continue to demonstrate reliable technology that supports customers’ operational needs and drives the progress reflected in our achievements.

Joint venture to deliver low‑cost bulk hydrogen

Joint venture with Industrial Chemicals Group Limited to use H-Power’s proprietary, leading ammonia cracking technology to produce the lowest cost bulk hydrogen available to industrial customers in the UK, by the end of calendar year 2026 .

Commercial deployments through Speedy Hydrogen Solutions

Multiple fuel cell generator deployments through Speedy Hydrogen Solutions joint venture.

Launch of the HY5 ammonia cracker

Launch of our hydrogen production product, the HY5 ammonia cracker, capable of producing 500 kg/hydrogen per day.

H‑Power 200 kW generator successfully deployed

Successful deployment of the 200 kW liquid-cooled fuel cell generator in extreme conditions at the FIA Extreme H World Cup in Qiddiya City, Saudi Arabia. Working in partnership with TAMGO, we generated c.17 MWh of power from hydrogen (equivalent to powering c.120 homes).

Our business is blessed with an incredibly talented team that has developed, and continues to advance world-class technology.

Products & Technology

Our products

H-Power delivers hydrogen production and hydrogen‑to‑power technologies, each designed to solve a different part of the hydrogen‑to‑power challenge. The HY5 ammonia cracker produces low‑carbon hydrogen on‑site and on‑demand, while the LC30 hydrogen fuel cell generator converts hydrogen from the HY5 or any other supply into clean, quiet and reliable electrical power.

Sustainability highlights

We are proud to have successfully completed our ISO 14001 Environmental Management and ISO 9001 Quality Management surveillance audits with zero non conformities, reinforcing our commitment to high quality, environmentally responsible operations.
