As the U.S. continues to transition toward cleaner energy sources, clean hydrogen energy can be a real game-changer. And Chemours’ chemistry has a vital role to play.
Our Nafion™ ion exchange materials sit at the center of both the water electrolyzers that convert renewable electricity into clean hydrogen energy and the fuel cells that deploy hydrogen energy for use in transportation and as back-up power for hospitals, buildings, and heavy industry. And as the major domestic producer of membrane technology, Chemours is proudly at the forefront of delivering this innovative and sustainable solution to our nation’s energy needs.
Chemours is committed to supporting the growth of our partners, customers, and the overall Hydrogen Economy, and look forward to collaborating with the ARCH2 to help support America’s transition to decarbonization.
