#Hydrogen is a key pillar in the transition to a net-zero world, given its ability to decarbonize 'hard-to-abate' industries like steel, cement, fertiliser, marine transport and applications in many other sectors. One of the main barriers to scaling its impact has been the challenges of storing and transporting hydrogen, particularly in a future world where production will be decentralized. As part of our comprehensive research, we were excited to discover the efficient, scaleable, and innovative #LOHC solutions from Ayrton Energy and glad to have the opportunity to participate in its pre-A funding round, led by Clean Energy Ventures and BDC Capital. Ayrton Energy fits perfectly in our strategy of identifying promising deeptech ventures that address a clear gap in the energy transition of Asia's growth market. We look forward to working with Natasha Kostenuk, P.Eng Brandy Kinkead, PhD and the rest of the team as well as the Board. Antares Ventures will particularly focus on supporting Ayrton Energy in their growth expansion into Asian markets.
