Boson Energy a republié ceci
This partnership is a true milestone for Boson Energy, in that it unlocks the combined capabilities of the Siemens verticals Process Automation and Electrification & Automation, and Siemens #SmartInfrastructure to support our standardization and rapid scaling. This is Siemens leaning into circularity, decarbonisation, reducing infrastructure stress, automation and digitisation of waste-to-X; and the vision and drive of respective vertical CEOs Axel Lorenz and Stephan May (co-signing the MoU) and their teams, especially in Sweden, have been instrumental in the process. Original press release on the Siemens website here: https://lnkd.in/eEYCfmCZ The cooperation allows Boson to focus on our core activities, delivery and quality of the reactor system, with Siemens adding chemical and electrical engineering, instrumentation and controls, all products around smart charging, smart infrastructure, digitalisation and AI – covering the full value chain of DC-DC fast charging and DC-AC power grid support, and the infrastructure around it. To all 'hydrogen pragmatists' out there... this is not about catering to an H2 vehicle market that doesn't exist and requiring massive investments in a large-scale H2 infrastructure that doesn't exist. This is a about getting rid of inefficient and inflexible incineration and landfilling – to realise the full local resource potential of the otherwise non-recyclable waste that we all produce. We do this by ’cracking’ rather than burning the waste and deploying the resulting H2 as local H2-powered fast charging and H2-powered grid support; and avoiding expensive large-scale compression, storage, and transport of H2 – including process-native carbon capture without expensive add-ons. The result is electrification of heavy-duty transport that is cheaper than diesel and relieving and supporting rather than stressing the grid. The press release references our target of 300 plants, While that may sound ambitious, we need to think big to address the global challenges of infrastructure stress, decarbonization, and sustainable waste management. Keep in mind that it represents less than 4% of the Europe MENA (Middle East and North Africa) market potential; that counts some 300 million tons of waste per year going to dumpsites, landfills, and incineration – at immense cost to environment, health and climate, and an utter and complete waste of the valuable, potentially profitable, and democratic resource that is our own non-recyclable waste. https://lnkd.in/et-AxKi9 Thank you Thierry Labro and Paperjam / Delano for once again covering what we are up to with speed and ambition!
