BayoTech to equip hydrogen generation units with autonomous technology
Industrial software and technology provider Emerson will deliver automation technologies, software and products to help BayoTech to build the hydrogen units.
BayoTech, a developer of hydrogen solutions, is partnering with global industrial software and technology provider Emerson to equip its hydrogen generation units with autonomous technology, helping to accelerate scaling the production and distribution of hydrogen, according to companies.
Through a multiyear strategic framework agreement, Emerson will deliver automation technologies, software and products to help BayoTech to build hydrogen units to produce hydrogen.
Using Emerson’s programmable logic controller and edge control technologies, remote monitoring and IoT solutions, the BayoTech’s unmanned, autonomous skids will operate and be monitored remotely from the company’s headquarters in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
These hydrogen generation units are already being built and will be placed in Bayo’s hydrogen hubs and at customer sites throughout the United States and other global locations. From the hubs, locally produced hydrogen will be distributed to nearby consumers via BayoTech high-pressure gas transport and storage equipment.
BayoTech’s modular hydrogen generation units produce up to 1,000 kilograms per day, enough to fill up to 200 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. To meet growing hydrogen demand, BayoTech is leveraging its core technology to develop 5-, 10- and 20-tonne units, says the company.
