Verne's proprietary hydrogen storage technology that cools and compresses hydrogen to achieve maximum density of 73 g/L, enabling high-density on-board storage for heavy-duty vehicles.

Hydrogen stored cryogenically at very low temperatures, drastically reducing its volume for efficient long-range transport and storage.

High-pressure hydrogen storage and fueling system used in First Hydrogen's LCVs, enabling rapid refueling and extended driving range.

United States

Verne's core project to develop and commercialize cryo-compressed hydrogen storage technology for on-board use in heavy-duty vehicles. The technology cools and compresses hydrogen to achieve maximum density for improved range and payload.

Verne's first on-board testing of its cryo-compressed hydrogen storage system on a vehicle, completed as part of the Breakthrough Energy Fellows program. The testing validated the performance of the technology and all sub-systems.

A high-density hydrogen storage system that cools and compresses hydrogen to 73 g/L internal density for on-board use in heavy-duty vehicles. The system enables semi-trucks to achieve diesel-equivalent range (900+ miles) and payload without adding extra weight.
