Hydrogen
Hydrogen is the core pillar of our technology strategy. DonE has developed three proprietary technical routes covering distributed applications up to large‑scale industrial projects.
Methanol Reforming
Our methanol reforming technology provides capacities from 2 to 1,000 Nm³/h, with scalable modular design via parallel operation.
Methanol can be stored and transported under ambient conditions, ensuring safety, availability and a mature supply chain. As green methanol reduces its costs, this solution enables an efficient transition to a low‑carbon economy.
Alkaline Electrolyzers (ALK)
Designed with Zero-Gap architecture, our alkaline electrolyzers optimize energy efficiency and ensure stable large-scale operation.
Highlights:
- Low Energy Consumption
- High Reliability
- Stable Continuous Operation
- Suitable for large‑scale industrial projects
PEM Electrolyzers
Optimized for integration with intermittent renewable energy sources (solar and wind).
Key Features:
- Current density of 1.5–3 A/cm²
- Operating range 5%–150%
- Fast Start/Stop Response
H₂ Purity > 99.999%
Photovoltaic Solar Energy
We develop full EPC projects for large-scale photovoltaic plants and distributed generation
Includes: site assessment, engineering, supply, construction and grid connection.
The solutions focus on maximizing power generation and reducing LCOE throughout the entire project lifecycle.
Concentrated Solar Power (CSP)
We develop CSP plants and solar heat systems for power generation and industrial use.
We integrate solar concentration technologies (such as parabolic trough collectors) and thermal energy storage to guarantee continuous supply even without direct solar radiation.
Natural Gas Power Generation
We offer EPC services for natural gas power plants, including internal combustion engines and cogeneration systems (CHP), delivering efficient, reliable, low-emission power for industrial and grid applications.
