Congratulations to our portfolio company Verne on their groundbreaking demonstration with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) of a highly efficient hydrogen densification process. Their innovative approach reduces the energy required for hydrogen densification by up to 90% compared to traditional methods - a game-changing advancement for the future of clean energy infrastructure and heavy-duty transportation. Kudos to the entire Verne team on this achievement! 🚛💫 #CleanEnergy #Hydrogen #Sustainability #Innovation #ClimateAction
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Verne demonstrate highly efficient hydrogen densification pathway The demonstration validated that it is possible to reach cryo-compressed hydrogen conditions with liquid hydrogen-like density directly from a source of gaseous hydrogen — reducing the required energy input by 50% compared to hydrogen liquefaction. Hydrogen adoption has been hindered by the limitations of existing forms of hydrogen: compressed gaseous hydrogen is cheap to produce but low in density, while liquid hydrogen is high in density but expensive to densify. “Providing a low-cost way to reach high densities will bring down the cost of delivering and using hydrogen, opening up a host of applications for hydrogen across some of the most demanding sectors of the economy from construction to ports to warehouses,” - Ted McKlveen, co-founder & CEO of Verne.

Forum Mobility is proud to be part of Amazon’s Climate Pledge Fund, supporting Amazon’s commitment to reaching net-zero carbon emissions by 2040. Amazon is an anchor tenant at FM Harbor, host to twelve Volvo Trucks VNR electric trucks from their Global Mile fleet. Amazon’s leadership is important for several reasons. Amazon’s size drives scale and raises the bar for others to follow. But importantly, Amazon’s trailblazing also opens opportunities for all fleets. Having Amazon as an anchor tenant allows us to build infrastructure, allowing smaller fleets to access the benefits of zero-emission trucking. Hear from Nick Ellis on how collaboration is key to achieving our collective electrification goals. https://lnkd.in/g6pq7uKr
