About NewHydrogen, Inc.
NewHydrogen is developing ThermoLoop ™ – a breakthrough technology that uses water and heat rather than electricity to produce the world’s lowest cost green hydrogen. Hydrogen is the cleanest and most abundant element in the universe, and we can’t live without it. Hydrogen is the key ingredient in making fertilizers needed to grow food for the world. It is also used for transportation, refining oil and making steel, glass, pharmaceuticals and more. Nearly all the hydrogen today is made from hydrocarbons like coal, oil, and natural gas, which are dirty and limited resources. Water, on the other hand, is an infinite and renewable worldwide resource.
Currently, the most common method of making green hydrogen is to split water into oxygen and hydrogen with an electrolyzer using green electricity produced from solar or wind. However, green electricity is and always will be very expensive. It currently accounts for 73% of the cost of green hydrogen. By using heat directly, we can skip the expensive process of making electricity, and fundamentally lower the cost of green hydrogen. Inexpensive heat can be obtained from concentrated solar, geothermal, nuclear reactors and industrial waste heat for use in our novel low-cost thermochemical water splitting process. Working with a world class research team at UC Santa Barbara, our goal is to help usher in the green hydrogen economy that Goldman Sachs estimated to have a future market value of $12 trillion.

OTCMKTS:NEWH New Hydrogen CEO Steve Hill and University of Michigan Expert Discuss Energy Infrastructure Coordination and Data Security
Dr. Vladimir Dvorkin shares his experience in coordinating critical infrastructures such as power grid with data centers, safeguarding energy data privacy, and evolving role of AI
SANTA CLARITA, Calif., Dec. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NewHydrogen, Inc. (OTCMKTS:NEWH), the developer of ThermoLoop ™ , a breakthrough technology that uses water and heat rather than electricity to produce the world’s cheapest green hydrogen, today announced a podcast featuring CEO Steve Hill and Dr. Vladimir Dvorkin, Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Michigan.
As for coordinating infrastructure like power grid and data centers, Dr. Dvorkin said, “Data centers are newly emerging pieces of infrastructure to have a huge impact on power grid. Electrical load can rapidly change due to sudden change of power drawn from AI processing requirements. Further, emission requirements at various locations may dictate which data centers should take the heavy load at a given time. It is fortunate that we can change training algorithms for AI loads to minimize the electricity consumption at data centers depending on what algorithms are being used. We can think of this as smoothing the load profile of disruptive electrical loads with minimum impact on performance since electricity availability is less dependent on locations than that of natural gas.”
On data security for public safety, Dr. Dvorkin said, “Data can be very proprietary and very sensitive since electric power system is a nationally critical infrastructure. We have some models of the grid, but the secrecy of certain information makes it difficult to manage. That is where modern technology of differential privacy and optimization kicks in. The technology allows us to synthesize actual power grids without disclosing too much information. It is a game of trade on how much information you want to reveal in order to fine-tune your trading strategy versus how much resilient system you want.
On the challenges of integrating AI with our critical infrastructure, Dr. Dvorkin said, “Data center owners like Google, Microsoft, Amazon need to know projected demand and how much power supply they will need in the long term. Recently the deal between Microsoft and Three Miles Power Plant is an example of this coordination so they anticipate demand and secure supply up to 20 years ahead. For a short term, Google talks to local power companies to accommodate peak load and smooth out data center profile during peak hours to minimize stress on the grid. Also, a power plant may suddenly lose power, and we need the flexibility to accommodate the loss of generation.”
Dr. Vladimir Dvorkin received a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the Technical University of Denmark. He is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Michigan. Before joining University of Michigan, Dr. Vladimir was with the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS) and Energy Initiative of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a MSCA postdoctoral fellow. He leads the ?ptiML group, where they harness the power of optimization and machine learning to address the grand challenges of transitioning to digital and carbon-free power and energy systems.

Dr. Christopher Cadou highlights the potential benefits and the challenges of using hydrogen for aviation, the concept of drop-in replacements for fossil fuels
SANTA CLARITA, Calif., Oct. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NewHydrogen, Inc. (OTCMKTS:NEWH), the developer of ThermoLoop™, a breakthrough technology that uses water and heat rather than electricity to produce the world’s cheapest green hydrogen, today announced a recent episode of the NewHydrogen Podcast. CEO Steve Hill explored hydrogen’s potential with Dr. Christopher Cadou, a Keystone Professor in the University of Maryland's A. James Clark School of Engineering.
This podcast covered fuel cells, hydrogen’s role in aviation, and the future of decarbonization. Dr. Cadou explained fuel cells’ operation, comparing them to combustion reactions. He highlighted hydrogen’s efficiency but noted challenges in aviation due to low energy density. He emphasized using existing infrastructure for hydrogen based synthetic fuels to reduce carbon emissions and cost.
Dr. Cadou explained how fuel cells work, comparing them to combustion reactions and emphasizing the role of ions and catalysts. Dr. Cadou remarked, “a fuel cell works on the transport of ions that is the opposite of an electrolysis where we put energy in, but in a fuel cell we extract energy out.” He added, “Using hydrogen to power long distance flights might not be viable due to hydrogen's low energy density at normal temperatures and pressures.”
On synthetic hydrocarbons, Dr. Cadou said, “Using existing infrastructure for fuel delivery and storage may be more cost effective with synthetic fuels,” emphasizing the importance of defossilization rather than just decarbonization and highlighting the potential of hydrogen-sourced synthetic hydrocarbons as a carbon-neutral energy carrier. “Partnerships focused on carbon capture and utilization, along with hydrogen production, could create a more sustainable energy future.”
Christopher Cadou received the BS. in Mechanical Engineering and the B.A. in History from Cornell University in 1989. He subsequently received the M.S. and PhD. Degrees in Mechanical Engineering from UCLA in 1991 and 1996 respectively. Dr. Cadou’s early research focused on the thermophysical issues underlying and often limiting the miniaturization of combustion-based power systems. He developed a variety of analytical models and numerical simulations that have significantly advanced our understanding of flame stabilization in micro-channels, unique non-intrusive diagnostic techniques for measuring temperature and species concentrations in micro-scale flows, and the development of a unique miniature engine testing facility. He has since expanded into other areas including film cooling in supersonic environments, the development of non-intrusive diagnostic techniques for supersonic environments and miniature piston engine combustion chambers, compact, hybrid piezo-fluid actuators for aerospace applications, pulsejet engines, and most recently fuel cell-gas turbine hybridization for aerospace applications. Dr. Cadou is a member of the Combustion Institute, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, an Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.

NewHydrogen Announces Disruptive Technology to Produce the World's Cheapest Green Hydrogen
Working with a team of world-class chemical and materials engineers at UC Santa Barbara, the Company is developing a better way to efficiently split water into cheap green hydrogen with a thermochemical approach, using heat instead of electricity
SANTA CLARITA, Calif. (August 22, 2023) — NewHydrogen, Inc. (OTC:NEWH), the developer of a disruptive technology that uses clean energy and water to produce the world’s cheapest green hydrogen, today announced that the Company recently entered into a research agreement with UC Santa Barbara to work with a team of world-class chemical and materials engineers to develop a better way to efficiently split water into cheap green hydrogen with a thermochemical approach, using heat instead of electricity.
“Hydrogen is the cleanest and most abundant element in the universe, and we can’t live without it,” said NewHydrogen CEO Steve Hill. “Hydrogen is the key ingredient in making fertilizers needed to grow food for the world. It is also used for transportation, refining oil and making steel, glass, pharmaceuticals and more. The world needs lots of hydrogen, and it must be cheap and green.”
Mr. Hill continued, “The gold standard for producing green hydrogen today is through electrolysis by using electrolyzers with solar or wind electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Unfortunately, electricity, especially green electricity, is very expensive and will continue to be expensive. In fact, electricity currently accounts for 73% of the cost of green hydrogen production. On the other hand, renewable heat from sources such as concentrated solar and geothermal can be very low cost. Often it’s even free in the form of waste heat from sources such as nuclear power plants, and industrial processes for making steel, glass, ceramics, and many things we use in our everyday lives.”
“The UC Santa Barbara technology team, led by Dr. Philip Christopher, plans to exploit the features of molten liquids to directly split water continuously in a single redox chemical loop, to produce hydrogen and oxygen in separate chambers,” Mr. Hill disclosed. “We are developing a novel Molten Catalytic Liquid that can be reduced in one chamber, oxidized in another chamber, and is continuously recycled and reused. The only inputs are heat and water. We call this technology, NewHydrogen ThermoLoop™, and it will be a novel, first of its kind, high efficiency thermochemical water-splitter that uses low-cost common materials and common industrial temperatures of less than 1,000°C, to potentially produce the world’s cheapest green hydrogen.”
Green hydrogen is crucial in meeting the greenhouse gas emission goals described in the United Nations Paris Agreement. Solar, wind and batteries alone simply cannot be relied upon to decarbonize industries, such as aviation, maritime, steel, cement, fertilizers, oil refining and pharmaceuticals. The expected global drive towards “net-zero emission” by 2050 will create tremendous demand for green hydrogen for decades to come. Goldman Sachs estimates a future market value of $12 trillion.
“NewHydrogen now has two promising green hydrogen technology projects under way,” Mr. Hill reported. “In addition to our heat-based ThermoLoop™ project at UC Santa Barbara, our UCLA technology team, led by Dr. Yu Huang, has made considerable progress in our quest to replace and reduce expensive rare earth materials used as catalysts in conventional electrolyzers. Until there is a new technology that does not rely on electricity as the input energy to make hydrogen, electrolyzers will continue to serve as an important bridge to the green hydrogen economy.”
Mr. Hill concluded, “NewHydrogen has the potential to disrupt the entire hydrogen industry by dramatically lowering the cost of green hydrogen by using cheap heat and any source of cheap water. Depending on relative world costs and availability of hydrocarbon feed stocks, our disruptive technology has the potential to produce green hydrogen at a lower cost than grey hydrogen made from natural gas, or blue hydrogen made from natural gas with carbon capture. In other word, the world’s cheapest hydrogen.”
