ERGOSUP

ERGOSUP is a French startup with the slogan "High pressure hydrogen made simple" that has developed an innovative process for on-site high-pressure hydrogen production, enabling refueling of hydrogen-fueled vehicles. The process involves electrolyzing water with electricity and a zinc salt to produce oxygen and hydrogen in two successive steps, known as fractional electrolysis. This method offers notable advantages in terms of performance, safety, and cost-efficiency.

ERGOSUP, established in 2012, focuses on energy storage and conversion, primarily in the Manufacturing and Renewable Energy industries. The company has received significant support, being recognized as a winner of the three phases of the Global Innovation Competition and labeled as "Solar Impulse" since 2018. Additionally, it is a member of the competitiveness clusters TENERRDIS and AXELERA, and the association France Hydrogène, while receiving support from BPI and the General Council of Drôme.
