Boson Energy and Siemens AG have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate on technology that converts non-recyclable waste into clean energy. The collaboration aims to advance sustainable, local energy security, enabling hydrogen-powered electric vehicle charging infrastructure without compromising grid stability or impacting consumer prices. “Siemens, with its unique capabilities of people and technology, gives Boson Energy ‘unlimited’ capacity to scale and reach markets from Berlin to Delhi and beyond – from day one,” commented Jan Grimbrandt, CEO of Boson Energy.
Siemens offers technology for every step of sector coupling, from initial chemical processes to the final charging stations. As a technology partner, Siemens will assist Boson Energy in building a blueprint to create a scalable and repeatable solution, by applying the latest technology within digital services and software for optimisation, standardisation, and simulation during both the manufacturing and operational phases.
Boson Energy can offer its distributed production of local energy and chemicals – turning non-recyclable waste into a sustainable hydrogen that is cost-competitive to fossil fuels at point of use. It does this by integrating its Hydrogen by Plasma Assisted Gasification (HPAG) technology into an ‘energy hub’ solution that realises the important circular hydrogen potential of waste in a uniquely sustainable way. Boson Energy aims to establish more than 300 plants in order to produce 1 million tons of circular hydrogen from waste by 2030 – avoiding up to 30 million tons of CO2 emissions per year. Starting in Sweden, Poland, and Germany, then continuing throughout Europe, Boson Energy is aiming for a global presence.
