Australian startup mimics trees to make cheaper green hydrogen

Hysata, based in Wollongong, south of Sydney, has raised US$111mil (RM526mil) from investors to scale up its technology to produce hydrogen from electricity. The company’s advantage is the energy efficiency of its electrolyzer, a machine that separates hydrogen out of water. — Reuters
