March 19, 2024 - pH Matter is happy to announce it was selected for $7.2 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Energy Fuel Cell Technologies Office as part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funding. The co-operative agreement will build on pH Matter’s catalyst technology advancements to scale products for the heavy-duty transportation market, and hydrogen generation. Hydrogen fuel cells are an important zero-emissions technology for transportation and long duration energy storage. Hydrogen can be generated by ...
NASA-Sponsored Work in Development for Use on the Moon COLUMBUS – Ohio-based companies pH Matter and Power to Hydrogen (P2H2) recently announced record-breaking reversible fuel cell performance in their NASA Game Changing Development annual review. NASA is interested in the technology for lunar energy storage and the generation of rocket propellants from lunar water. A reversible fuel cell effectively operates as a battery, but can also make useful gases. The ...
COLUMBUS – Dr. Paul Matter and Dr. Minette Ocampo of pH Matter were recently honored by the U.S. Dept. of Energy for the pair’s development of a new hydrogen fuel cell catalyst. The team received the Annual Merit Review award for biggest breakthrough in fuel cell technology development. Ocampo is a senior scientist at the company and led technical work on the DOE-sponsored project to develop the catalyst. “What we’ve developed helps ...

Fuel cells take hydrogen and convert it to electricity, leaving only water instead of ...
Columbus, Ohio - pH Matter was recently awarded U.S. patent 10,844,497 for an advanced electrochemical cell design. The technology enables low cost production of "green" hydrogen, which is currently used in zero-emission fleet vehicles, as well as long-duration energy storage. The technology will aid in the ongoing transition to sustainable energy sources. As more renewable energy is added to electrical grids, long duration energy storage is needed. Further, zero emission fuel is ...
Originally published on TechCrunch: https://techcrunch.com/2020/10/14/nasa-loads-14-companies-with-370m-for-tipping-point-technologies/ NASA has announced more than a third of a billion dollars worth of “Tipping Point” contracts awarded to over a dozen companies pursuing potentially transformative space technologies. The projects range from in-space testing of cryogenic tech to a 4G LTE network for the Moon. The space agency is almost ...
COLUMBUS, OH -- As we emerge from the pandemic shut down, home deliveries and the associated distribution network is expected to remain in high demand. pH Matter (“the company”) is pleased to announce it has begun development of improved catalyst products for heavy-duty distribution applications as part of a $2.3 million Department of Energy project. The distribution sector is essential to delivering goods everyone needs. However, the sector is also one of the largest sources of carbon emissions. Fuel cells operating on “green” hydrogen offer a ...
COLUMBUS, OH -- pH Matter (“the company”) is pleased to announce that its line of Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell catalysts has achieved the Department of Energy (DOE) 2020 automotive targets for catalyst activity and durability. The DOE 2020 targets were established to set metrics for automotive fuel cell material suppliers that would enable PEM fuel cells to match the cost of internal combustion engines. All fuel cells require catalysts to produce energy from hydrogen. pH Matter’s ...
pH Matter has announced that it has been accepted into the H2 Refuel Accelerator program. The program is sponsored by Shell, Toyota, and NYSERDA, and operated through a partnership with Urban Future Lab, Greentown Labs, and Fraunhofer TechBridge. The program’s goal is to accelerate commercialization of technologies related to the hydrogen mobility supply chain and hydrogen infrastructure. In relation to the program, pH Matter is commercializing catalysts and cell designs for fuel cells and electrolyzers. The technologies will ...
