Verdagy and Samsung Engineering Announce a Global Joint Development & Marketing Agreement

The Ideal Partnership of Technology, Expertise and Cost to Accelerate Green Hydrogen Adoption and Decarbonize Hard-to-Abate Industries

Verdagy, a green hydrogen electrolysis company with over a decade of technology and product development, announced today that it has entered into a joint development and marketing agreement with Samsung Engineering, a world leading engineering solutions and project management company. Verdagy and Samsung Engineering will collaborate on infrastructure-scale projects for the production of green hydrogen to jointly provide green hydrogen project developers with preeminent engineering and project management solutions.

“Verdagy is accelerating the adoption of green hydrogen by providing customers the most capital efficient, reliable and scalable electrolyzer solutions. Coupling Verdagy’s products with Samsung’s engineering expertise and track record of executing infrastructure scale projects is a win for green hydrogen developers,” said Verdagy CEO Marty Neese.

Samsung Engineering is excited about this agreement, since Verdagy has commercialized high efficiency, reliable, cost-competitive electrolyzers. Verdagy’s flexible architecture is also well suited for a broad set of applications and geographies, making it an ideal solution for our projects across the globe.”

“ We are more than doubling down in this round on Verdagy, we are witnessing how they have gone from a valuable technology to a defensible business.”

Anil Achyuta

Managing Director at TDK Ventures
“ Verdagy’s potential to demonstrate high-current density over a wide dynamic range across large-area cells led us to incubate and write the first check into the company in early 2020. Since then, the team has made significant progress in validating key performance and cost targets, getting them closer to building out a green hydrogen economy.”

Rajesh Swaminathan

Partner, Khosla Ventures
“ Yara is taking the lead on driving the use of electrolyzers in the ammonia and fertilizer industry. We see a strong need for cost competitive, clean hydrogen to be able to decarbonize and drive the movement towards a more environmentally friendly industry. Electrolysers is a technology requiring a lot of innovation and product development. We are really impressed by how Verdagy is taking on this challenge and want to take part in this adventure. The world needs them.”

Stian Nygaard

Investment Director in Yara Growth Ventures
“ Verdagy is rising to the challenge to accelerate the green hydrogen economy and decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors such as steel and ammonia production. The management team has a successful track record in scaling climate technologies from megawatts to gigawatts and they are committed to achieving the same at Verdagy.”

Vikas Gupta

Partner at Shell Ventures
“ We are focused on building an entire renewable hydrogen ecosystem in California to achieve our climate goals - including the crucial step of manufacturing electrolyzers. Verdagy’s decision to expand their footprint here reflects California’s unique strength in creating new markets, enabling the creation of clean energy jobs while solving our most existential challenges with the technology of the future.”
