How can hydrogen be compressed more efficiently—without moving parts and with minimal energy losses? In conversation with H2international, David Colomar, CEO of the French company Eifhytec, explains the principle of thermochemical compression. The technology replaces traditional mechanical compression and was awarded the hy-fcell Award 2025 in the category Products & Markets. Colomar explains how the process works and what advantages it can offer in the storage and transport of hydrogen.
An astounding share price increase – from around 300 to over 520 CHF – we’re seeing for specialist in reciprocating compressors Burckhardt Compression, where I was still calling for rebuys a few months ago after the price slump. This is a company, though, whose shares are in a really narrow market, which is why they should only be viewed as a portfolio addition. However, here it can be seen that many supplier companies and specialist firms are participating in the hydrogen boom.
