In this episode, John Holden attended the 2025 Canadian Hydrogen Conference in Edmonton, where he found out how the company Hydrofuel Canada works to decarbonize and profitably manufacture green hydrogen, ammonia, ethylene and other carbon-based chemicals.
The Hydrofuel's EARTH segment includes interviews with Alberta's Minister of Energy and Mines the Hon. Brian Jean and Dechant Farms owner Ken Dechant, Ontario's award winning University of Toronto Professor Geoffrey Ozin and company Chairman and CEO Greg Vezina, and the Netherlands Hans Vrijenhoef Vice President Past Ammonia Energy Association.
Toronto, July 2, 2025 -- Hydrofuel Canada Inc. (“Hydrofuel”) is pleased to announce that its University of Toronto (“UofT”) Solar Fuels Cluster Research Team (“Solar Fuels Team”), under the direction of Dr. Geoffrey Ozin, has been awarded the prestigious Royal Society of Chemistry’s 2025 John Jeyes Horizon Prize in Environment, Sustainability and Energy for its ground-breaking work defining a chemical and light-based approach to refining nanomaterials leading to efficient gas-phase heterogeneous carbon dioxide photocatalysis.

A groundbreaking research collaboration between Hydrofuel Canada Inc. and the Solar Fuels Group at the University of Toronto has yielded a pioneering method for producing ethylene and hydrogen from ethane using sunlight. This innovative approach, detailed in a recent paper published in Nature Energy, offers a sustainable alternative to the conventional energy-intensive and carbon-emitting process of steam cracking.
The research, spearheaded by Dr. Rui Song under the guidance of Professor Geoffrey Ozin, introduces a novel solar-driven catalytic process that leverages light to convert ethane, a component of natural gas, into ethylene and hydrogen without emitting any CO2. This method not only mitigates the environmental impact of ethylene production but also presents a renewable pathway for hydrogen generation.

MISSISSAUGA, ON, March 18, 2024 /CNW/ - Hydrofuel Canada Inc. ("Hydrofuel") announces US Patent 11,885,029 "Systems and Methods for Forming Nitrogen-Based Compounds" issuance and the completion of their Micro Ammonia Production System (MAPS 1.0) commercial prototype, enabling high-yield, sustainable ammonia synthesis from air and water with unprecedented efficiency using a gas-phase electrochemical process.
The MAPS 1.0 and 2.0 technologies significantly reduce the costs and energy requirement of making ammonia (NH3) compared to traditional methods. Multiple 381 ton per year units can be combined to operate in series or parallel to increase capacity.

The US$700,000 MAPS 1.0 version uses externally produced hydrogen (H2) to synthesize with nitrogen from air to make ammonia. If the H2 source is Green, so is the NH3 it produces.
The US$850,000 MAPS 2.0 system represents a major breakthrough in the production of green hydrogen and ammonia, as it addresses one of the biggest challenges in hydrogen production - the high cost of electrolysis. By combining hydrogen and nitrogen production in a single unit, MAPS 2.0 eliminates the need for separate production processes, significantly reducing the overall cost of green ammonia and the hydrogen in it to 50% of the cost of hydrogen produced via current electrolysis technologies. All Capex and Opex costs quoted exclude any government incentives or tax credits.
