Eden Announces $1,4 Million in ARPA-E Awards to Develop Stimulated Geologic Hydrogen Technologies.

-Eden, a leader in sustainable natural resource recovery, announced today that it has been selected to receive $1,400,000 in federal funding from the U.S. Department of Energy Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) for two projects titled “Electric-based Mechanical and Thermal Stimulation to Increase Geologic Hydrogen Reaction Rates in the Samail Ophiolite in Oman” and “Engineered Geologic Hydrogen Battery for Long-Term Energy Storage”. The funding is part of the $20M ARPA-E Geologic Hydrogen program, which prioritizes funding new technologies that stimulate generation of hydrogen in the subsurface, with an emphasis on minimizing costs and reducing environmental footprint. Eden will develop novel stimulated geologic hydrogen technologies to boost production from iron-rich formations like peridotites and develop game-changing solutions for long-term electrical energy storage in geological formations.
