Company Overview
Ayrton Energy is a Canadian cleantech company that has developed a proprietary liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) technology for hydrogen storage and transportation. Founded in 2021 by Natasha Kostenuk and Dr. Brandy Kinkead, the company's e-LOHC™ system allows hydrogen to be stored and transported within a liquid carrier at ambient temperature and pressure, similar to handling diesel. This innovation aims to overcome significant barriers to widespread hydrogen adoption by enabling the use of existing liquid fuel infrastructure, which reduces costs and safety risks associated with high-pressure or cryogenic methods. Headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Ayrton Energy is focused on decarbonizing hard-to-abate industries and is actively deploying pilot programs. The company has secured significant seed funding from investors including Clean Energy Ventures and BDC Capital to scale its technology and expand operations.
