Innovating the technology that makes electrolysis economical and sustainable.
Green hydrogen is a clean source of energy that will lead to a meaningful reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
Because electrolysis is the key to enabling green hydrogen, a future where it is globally available will only be possible with a disruptive new approach to electrolyser manufacturing, making market adoption cost-effective.
To make an impact on climate change, green hydrogen needs to be globally available today.
Oort Energy is on a mission to globally deploy our electrolyser technology, making green hydrogen economical so market demand drives the transition to net-zero.
Making green hydrogen economical so market demand drives the transition to net-zero
We will deploy electrolysers across the globe, giving customers the best value hydrogen on the market. We will have a portfolio of electrolysis technologies from which we can offer the best solution for the customer’s need.
The success of our company depends on everyone in it, and we want all staff to be proud of working in a company that listens to them. We want to know how we can do better, and we need to hear it from those at every level.
Oort Energy does. We are a company that will succeed through our work and we will foster an environment that encourages everyone to take pride on their work and to persist to achieve, to deliver quality.
We bring together expertise and leadership in all areas of the business. We aim to innovate and set the direction, rather than following what others have done before. Our people are our greatest strength.
By running a lean operation, Oort Energy can run both profitably and with a reduced carbon footprint. The environment is the reason we exist, but our operations need to reflect this too. We cut waste. We spend sensibly. We are efficient.
Our experienced leadership team combine 50+ years electrolyser expertise from fundamental electrochemistry to industrial manufacturing
