The McPhy technology
McPhy has developed unique techniques that solve the traditional limits of solid state hydrogen.
McPhy’s composites production line
MgH2 production capacity at McPhy's current manufacturing site:
- 100 kg/day
- Expandable to: 400 kg/day
The additives and the nano-structuration of the MgH2 help speed up the process of hydrogenating and dehydrogenating of the magnesium during the absorption/desorption cycles.
Thermal energy storage: McPhy's stationary adiabatic tank
A patented Phase Change Material (PCM) brought into thermal contact though the metal walls with the McPhy composite allows to store heat energy during loading and to return it during unloading.
• Minimum loss of energy (performance > 97%)
These technological advances already make McPhy’s products a viable new alternative for hydrogen storage. The company profits from the inherent advantages of the use of magnesium hydrides for hydrogen storage while solving a number of problems, making its solution very attractive.
