H2 Clipper’s Pipe-Within-A-Pipe™ Revolutionizes Last Mile Delivery Of Pure Hydrogen
Newly issued patent provides solution to “last mile” challenge of distributing fuel cell grade hydrogen inside pipelines that run below ground under virtually every major city in the world
H2 Clipper, Inc. has been awarded U.S. Patent 11,236,864 on a new technology that solves the “last mile” problem of hydrogen distribution while assuring hydrogen purity. The patent for the company’s Pipe-Within-A-Pipe™ technology covers the system, method, and apparatus for safely and efficiently transporting hydrogen up to 1,000 miles inside virtually any existing oil and gas pipeline, water pipe, sewer line, storm drain, or other pipelines. This breakthrough technology provides the safest, most cost-effective, most readily deployable, and scalable way to address end-user delivery of fuel cell grade hydrogen.
Such lines run below ground under virtually every major city in the world. Having a reliable way to safely utilize them to distribute pure hydrogen effectively solves the problem of distributing fuel cell grade hydrogen from regional depots and local production facilities to where it can be used as a carbon-free replacement for gasoline, diesel, natural gas, and other fossil fuels.
