The investment, backed by byFounders, Norrsken Evolve and Superangel, will support deployment of its first pilot system within the Port of Rotterdam ecosystem in partnership with SwitcH2 Offshore.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis capital takes us from the lab to pilot deployment,\u201d the company said in a statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn partnership with SwitcH2, a company specialising in offshore ammonia solutions, Spiral are building our first centrifugal bubble-free electrolyser system in the Port of Rotterdam.\u201d<\/p>\n
Scaling hydrogen production<\/strong><\/p>\n The project is aimed at validating scalable hydrogen production technology under real-world industrial conditions while strengthening port infrastructure for future alternative fuel supply chains. <\/p>\n Spiral Hydrogen said its patent-pending hydrogen electrolyser architecture eliminates gas bubble formation on electrodes, a problem where conventional systems can lose up to 30% of input energy.<\/p>\n The company claims the technology can achieve more than 90% efficiency, compared with the 60-70% range typically associated with conventional electrolysers.<\/p>\n This pilot project forms part of wider efforts across European port infrastructure to scale commercially viable hydrogen production and support decarbonisation targets in maritime and industrial sectors.<\/p>\n Spiral Hydrogen\u2019s containerised systems integrate electrolysis stacks, gas handling, power electronics, controls and safety architecture into modular units designed for deployment in port and industrial environments.<\/p>\n The company said that its centrifugal design removes the need for external pumps and cooling systems, while in-situ catalyst redeposition technology could extend stack lifetimes by up to four times compared with current industry standards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hydrogen electrolyser company, Spiral Hydrogen has secured \u20ac2.7 million in pre-seed funding and a further \u20ac700,000 grant to advance hydrogen production technology at the Port of Rotterdam.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":6335,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,34],"tags":[40,319,152,2573],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-6334","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-alternative-fuels-greenport","category-europe-greenport","tag-alternative-fuels","tag-hydrogen-production","tag-port-of-rotterdam","tag-spiral-hydrogen"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6334","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6334"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6334\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6336,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6334\/revisions\/6336"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6335"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6334"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6334"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6334"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=6334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
