HYTING announces first customer for catalytic hydrogen heating system

Start-up hydrogen heating technology company HYTING has announced Flusys GmbH as its first customer. This milestone marks a significant step in HYTING’s strategic growth and affirms that hydrogen can help displace natural gas as a cleaner, more sustainable heating source for both commercial and residential buildings.

Installation and commissioning are scheduled for early 2025 at Flusys’s newly established precision pump production facility in Offenbach, Germany. The 1,000-m³ production space will be heated using hydrogen supplied by a nearby provider.

HYTING describes its innovative system as a simple, safe, efficient, and clean way to generate heat directly from hydrogen, without combustion. The start-up has developed a forced-air heating system (patents-pending) that uses a unique catalytic process to convert hydrogen and oxygen from the air into heat, producing no CO₂, NOx, or particulate emissions – its only by-product is water. Furthermore, the system does not use flammable concentrations of hydrogen at any point.

The technology is not only innovative but also robust and cost-effective, as it incorporates many proven components from the heating and automotive industries. It features a modular, highly scalable design with outputs ranging from 10 to 300 kW, making it suitable for various heating applications, including industrial, commercial, and residential buildings (both new and retrofits), agricultural greenhouses, portable heating units, and heating systems for commercial vehicles.

Tim Hannig, Founder and Managing Director of HYTING, said: “We are certain that hydrogen will help decarbonize the heating sector. By radically simplifying the use of hydrogen’s thermal energy we developed an innovative hydrogen-fueled heating technology that is simple, safe, efficient, and clean and that will lead the way. We’re very proud that Flusys has chosen us, and we look forward to commissioning our technology at the Offenbach facility.”

“We are delighted to be a lighthouse customer of HYTING. The technology immediately fascinated and excited us. We hope to be able to give a boost to this new CO₂-free technology,” said Carsten Neutzer, CEO of Flusys GmbH.
