A company working to develop decarbonated energies

Through their past pro­fes­sion­al activ­i­ties in the pho­to­volta­ic and nuclear sec­tors, the co-founders of GHy­GA (Green Hydro­gen Gas Appli­ca­tions), Peter Bam­berg and Pierre Mac­cioni, have accom­pa­nied for many years the tech­no­log­i­cal efforts of indus­try in France and Europe to devel­op decar­bon­at­ed ener­gies.

Try­ing to widen access to avail­able ener­gy resources, they seek to pro­mote inno­v­a­tive projects. In par­tic­u­lar, they have been devel­op­ing inno­v­a­tive ideas around Marine Renew­able Ener­gies (MRE) for sev­er­al years.

GHy­GA’s ambi­tion is to ini­ti­ate and sup­port tech­no­log­i­cal projects to devel­op the use of Green Hydro­gen as a feed stock for indus­try ans mobil­i­ty at local, region­al, nation­al and inter­na­tion­nal level.

GHy­GA par­tic­i­pates local­ly in Drôme (French depart­ment) in activ­i­ties of the French Tech in the Valencia/Romans region and con­tributes to the local Ener­gy Tran­si­tion pro­mot­ing Green Hydro­gen and its appli­ca­tions and encour­ag­ing col­lab­o­ra­tions with oth­er Start Ups and inno­v­a­tive SMEs (cf Club T‑REX).

At the region­al lev­el, GHy­GA is a mem­ber of the “Decar­bon­at­ed ener­gies” com­pet­i­tive­ness clus­ter TENERRDIS and at the nation­al lev­el, par­tic­i­pates in the FRANCE HYDROGENE work­ing groups (Mobil­i­ty, Safe­ty, Pro­duc­tion, etc.).

Major projects for the ecological transition with decarbonated energies

Its ambi­tious flag­ship project is 2W2H2^® (Wind & Water To Hydro­gen), which con­sists of pro­duc­ing Green H2 (gH2) by elec­trol­y­sers, pow­ered by Renew­able Marine Ener­gies (RME), wind and marine cur­rents, via wind kite and water tur­bines installed on a recy­cled and ren­o­vat­ed (“upcy­cled”) off­shore plat­form. Stor­age and trans­port of the Green H2 is orga­nized in gaseous (high pres­sure) and liq­uid (organ­ic H2 car­ri­ers) form to the mainland.

A vari­ant of 2W2H2^® is being devel­oped with the pro­duc­tion, under sim­i­lar con­di­tions, of Green Ammo­nia (gNH3), in the 2W2NH3 project^®.

Beyond the major projects

Con­tri­bu­tions have been made or are planned at the region­al lev­el, with indus­tri­al part­ners in Auvergne Rhône Alpes and Provence Alpes Côte d’Azur, on projects involv­ing the devel­op­ment of H2 and NH3 ther­mal engines for road and naval mobil­i­ty (heavy, leisure and com­pe­ti­tion), along with their asso­ci­at­ed fuelling infra­struc­tures.

Who are we ?

GHy­GA is rep­re­sent­ed by its 6 senior indus­tri­al entre­pre­neurs and acts as an expe­ri­enced team serv­ing indus­try and investors who are chal­lenged by the decar­bonised ener­gy tran­si­tion con­straints. New approach­es are pro­posed in tech­nolo­gies like nuclear, green fuels and their indus­tri­al application.
