Our Services in Summary

Solutions & Use Case Summary

HydroLink will address key obstacles preventing green hydrogen adoption from reaching its potential and, in the process, incentivise the market to make the switch to sustainable alternatives. Leveraging HydroLink’s utility will prove both rewarding to firms deploying our technology and the world we all wish to preserve.

Certification of Origin

The end product of hydrogen production is solely hydrogen, with nothing beyond the assurances of the producer to differentiate between different standards of hydrogen. These standards include; green, blue, brown and grey hydrogen, which are graded on the emissions released in the process of isolating the end product hydrogen.

Hydrogen’s supply chain involves pre-processing, production, storage, distribution and end-use. As hydrogen moves throughout each stage of the supply chain, a connected smart meter and other IoT devices allow entities to record and relay production and distribution data to the HydroLedger. Our platform will enable enterprises to provide this information to their clients and regulatory compliance organisations. Not only do consumers gain a fully transparent view of the origin of their energy, but producers and other supply chain vendors will be able to verify processes undertaken prior and following their involvement.

Supply Chain Management

The benefits of the HydroLink Platform are far from limited to our certification solution, with the supply chain optimisation protocol offering meaningful insights for business, vendors, and consumers. Traditionally, bill of ladings, which can be thought of like a receipt, has been physically printed and manually transferred between parties. The issues with such ancient methods are obvious. Physical documents can easily get lost or stolen. Only those in possession of the document can view the details immediately. They are also tedious to digitise and transfer to a computer.

Immutable Record Keeping

HydroLink believes these issues will soon be a thing of the past with both blockchain and smart contract technology adoption imminent. HydroLedger will securely store a user's bill of lading, which will help simplify insurance claims and their respective outcomes and eliminate fraud. Any consumer in possession of a registered product on the HydroLink platform can access the entire history in seconds removing the need for phone calls and paper audits.

Carrier Management

Carrier onboarding is yet another area where blockchain will be instrumental to future supply chain optimisation, deployed across every industry reliant upon carrier transport. Currently, there is no comprehensive database of carrier ratings. Resultantly, each company must expend resources gathering reliability statistics, verifying insurance, cross-referencing driver qualifications and doing internal due diligence. Blockchain will forever alter these expensive, time consuming and outdated methods, equipping businesses worldwide with a shared database they can use to rate carriers and save themselves the time and hassle of internal screening processes.

Automation & Smart Contracts

The logistics sector will also enjoy the benefits that smart contracts bring. A business can deposit into an escrow account that releases the stored funds when the agreed-upon asset is certified as delivered at its final location. This seamless process leads to quicker payments to logistics companies and will reduce their operating costs and fees. Further, bypassing countless intermediaries reduces manual paperwork and invoicing, leading to even more time saved and costs cut.

Carbon Credit Marketplace

The current process for trading carbon credits or offsets involves a physical contract. The involvement of lawyers and brokers as intermediaries heightens the already difficult process through additional time and cost burdens. As such, there is a growing demand for an open international marketplace to conveniently exchange carbon credits and offsets. HydroLink brings a simple, easy-to-use user interface using blockchain to promote trust, security, erase fraud and the risk of double counting. HydroLink can provide the means to exchange these credits with adherence to regulatory standards with added benefits of instant transfers, market transparency, security, and importantly, ensuring the accurate pricing of carbon assets.
