A corridor throughout Texas for medium- and heavy-duty trucks utilizing hydrogen as fuel.

A scaled-up prototype of SunHydrogen's nanoparticle-based hydrogen generator housed in a solar panel format with 16 times more hydrogen generation area than previous versions.

A Memorandum of Understanding between SunHydrogen and COTEC to scale up nanoparticle-based hydrogen generation from lab scale to commercial scale using industrial electroplating processes. The goal is to showcase the world's first nanoparticle-based green hydrogen production at commercial scale.

The world's first self-contained nanoparticle-based hydrogen generation device capable of splitting water molecules into high-purity green hydrogen and oxygen using power from the sun. Currently available as a prototype.

A small-scale prototype containing a single nanoparticle-based green hydrogen generator designed for controlled testing, unveiled in December 2022.

A solar panel housing multiple nanoparticle-based hydrogen generators with 16 times more hydrogen generation area than previous versions. The system can operate 24 hours daily using solar energy supplemented by renewable grid electricity.
