The future is clear

WILD HYDROGEN

What we do

Our technology will enable affordable, carbon-negative hydrogen and biomethane production. ​

Our patented Rising Pressure Reformer (RiPR) technology transforms wet biogenic material – such as agricultural residues and waste streams – into four commercially viable products: biomethane, hydrogen, captured carbon dioxide, and biochar. The process delivers a carbon-negative fuel solution, breaking free from the traditional reliance on fossil fuels. ​

The Solution

Our RiPR technology is a game-changer for clean fuel production. It generates both biomethane and hydrogen from a wide range of biogenic feedstocks, while simultaneously capturing carbon dioxide and producing biochar. This delivers not just low-carbon energy, but a carbon-negative solution that actively removes emissions from the atmosphere.

The Difference

Unlike green hydrogen production or anaerobic digestion, our RiPR technology is engineered to handle a wide variety of biogenic feedstocks without relying on strategic rare-earth metals, intermittent green electricity, or large volumes of water. It produces low levels of tars and contaminants while delivering a robust, scalable alternative to fossil-derived natural gas.

The Opportunity

The global hydrogen market is worth over £100 billion, with the vast majority of current demand still met by carbon-intensive grey hydrogen. Our RiPR technology not only offers a price-competitive alternative, it also delivers immediate climate benefits by producing biomethane as a transition fuel. As policy and infrastructure evolve to support wider hydrogen adoption, the same technology can flexibly produce hydrogen from biogenic waste streams, enabling a phased, future-ready pathway to decarbonisation.

ABOUT US

Our story

Mark, James and John met at their local coffee stop. They founded Wild Hydrogen based on an idea that Mark had been musing on for many years.

Now, the company is well on its way to building a commercial plant, proving that there is a viable and sustainable method for creating negative-emission fuel.
