How do you satisfy an insatiable demand for energy on a finite planet?
Despite the urgent challenge of climate change, the world’s growing hunger for energy continues unabated. Power is commensurate with progress, but the way we generate it must change. Economic and environmental pressures mean we have to find a way to kick our carbon habit.
Government initiatives, public pressure, and cost increases are driving demand for low carbon options. While fossil fuels still provide most of our energy, the balance is shifting. Renewables are becoming more affordable, making them a more attractive economic proposition.
As Deloitte states about its Power Market Study for 2025, “The good old days are gone for good – a mere evolution is not sufficient, a real transformation is required.” Planet Power Systems offers exactly such a transformation.
Industrial scale thermal power generation. Zero emissions.
The industrial energy market sits at a crossroads. Older technologies are struggling both from a cost and planetary health perspective, but renewable energy technology isn’t quite ready to take over. There is a gap between the old and the new. The question is, how can we close it?
The Hydrogen Energy Release Optimiser (HERO®) is an innovative technology that can accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future while also improving profits.
It uses hydrogen to produce heat by catalysis rather than combustion. HERO® is flameless, stable, and precisely controllable, with the only byproduct being ultra-pure water. It eliminates the need for fossil fuels, improving economic and environmental performance in one sweep. Better still, it can be easily retrofitted into a host of existing industrial applications from power plants to district heating systems.

“The clear and present danger of climate change means we cannot burn our way to prosperity. We already rely too heavily on fossil fuels. We need to find a new, sustainable path to the future we want. We need a clean industrial revolution.”
