Employer Description:GeoPura was founded to help source enough clean energy to electrify our global economy and navigate the logistical issues of getting this energy to where it is needed.
The GeoPura solution uses renewable energy, normally solar PV or wind, to create hydrogen and hydrogen based zero emission fuels. This fuel is then transported to locations where a local generator converts it to electrical power. From start to finish the process is clean and carbon free – the only by-product is pure water.
GeoPura is enabling the production, transport, and use of zero-emissions fuels with innovative and commercially viable technology to decarbonise our global economy.
As the world transitions away from fossils fuels, there is an increasing need for reliable, clean electricity. If we are to continue using the amount of power we currently do, our grid system will need support from renewable energy sources, such as green hydrogen.
