What is 'Hydrogen On-Site Without CapEx™'?
- No equipment purchase or infrastructure ownership
- No delivery schedules or supply-chain dependency
- No boil-off losses, liquid-to-gas conversion costs, or purity variability
The Benefits of On-Site Hydrogen (HOwC™)
Zero CapEx Setup
All Equipment is provided with no CapEx expectation of the client. ESSNA™ installs and maintains the system while you pay only for the hydrogen consumed.
Predictable Pricing
A single contracted per-kg price inclusive of operations, service, and maintenance.
Modular & Scalable
Start small and expand capacity as demand grows, with modular systems that support phased deployment across fleets, depots, and industrial sites.
Lower Cost Per Kg
Eliminate trucking, storage, boil-off, and liquid-to-gas conversion losses that increase the true cost of delivered hydrogen.
How it Works
ESSNA™ provides hydrogen as a fully managed, on-site service. Modular hydrogen generation and dispensing equipment is installed at your facility, owned and operated by ESSNA™, and integrated into your existing operations.
System Deployment
ESSNA™ supplies and installs a modular hydrogen generation and dispensing system at your site, designed on your operational needs and hydrogen demand.
Site Integration
