Ohmium Announces Close of $45 Million Series B Financing

Fenice Investment Group Leads Round to Expand Green Hydrogen PEM Electrolyzer Company

Fenice Investment Group Leads Round to Expand Green Hydrogen PEM Electrolyzer Company  

FREMONT, CA and BANGALORE, INDIA APRIL 14, 2022 - Ohmium International, Inc., a green  hydrogen company that designs, manufactures, and deploys PEM Electrolyzers, announced the  close of a $45 million Series B Financing today. Existing investor Fenice Investment Group led  the round, with participation from current major investors and new investor Energy Transition  Ventures. The funds will support Ohmium’s rapid growth plan to quadruple hydrogen  manufacturing capacity from 500 MW annually to approximately two GW annually by the end of  2022. Ohmium’s unique interlocking modular PEM electrolyzers provide a safer, modular,  flexible, easy to install and maintain alternative to customized electrolyzers. The company has  research and development facilities in the United States and India–with manufacturing  operations in India.  

“The world has been waiting for cost-effective green hydrogen to usher in the hydrogen  economy,” said Ahmad Chatila, of Fenice Investment Group and Chairman of Ohmium  International. “Ohmium now has the resources and the manufacturing capacity to make it a  reality today for customers worldwide.” 

“The market demand for low carbon hydrogen is growing rapidly. Ohmium has the most  experienced executive and technical team we’ve come across in this industry in many years,  and is running the winning green hydrogen playbook – high volume, low cost, modular  manufacturing of PEM electrolyzers to supply the global market,” said Craig Lawrence, Partner  at Energy Transition Ventures. “In a world where renewable power costs are cheaper than even  the fuel for fossil power, green hydrogen is poised to transform energy and industrial markets.”  

“We’re thrilled to be expanding at this critical time. The world is rapidly transitioning away from  fossil fuels and towards clean energy–and recent events have only accelerated that move. We  can no longer tie our economies to unreliable fossil fuels. Green hydrogen will play a critical role  in our clean energy future. This funding allows us to expand our manufacturing capacity toward  the approximately two GW per year target by the end of this year. Our sales have been growing  very rapidly, and increasing the manufacturing capacity is critical to meeting the current and the  near-term future demand in the rapidly expanding market,” said Arne Ballantine, CEO of  Ohmium International. 

Ohmium manufactures standardized interlocking modular Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzers able to produce pressurized high-purity hydrogen. Individual electrolyzers can be  stacked to significantly reduce installation and maintenance costs while enabling unlimited  configurations of deployment sizes. Ohmium’s proprietary electrolyzer stack technology can  sustain a differential pressure across the membrane without compromise, which enhances cost effective operations. 

Hydrogen is an essential element used in steelmaking, fertilizer production, refineries, and many  other heavy and light industries. The majority of hydrogen is made from fossil fuels today, making it a heavy carbon polluter. Cost-effective green hydrogen – emission-free hydrogen  made from water electrolysis using renewable energy sources – is critical for the world to meet  its Net-Zero emission targets.
