Siemens Energy partners with Paragon to scale recycled aluminium hydrogen tech

EDITED BY : 3MINS READ

In a notable development within the recycled aluminium sector, UK-based start-up Paragon Resources has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Siemens Energy, a global leader in energy technologies. The collaboration aims to commercialise an innovative hydrogen production process that leverages recycled aluminium reacting with water in the presence of a catalyst, highlighting the strategic integration of advanced technology in sustainable aluminium applications.

Under the terms of the MoU, both organisations will collaborate to deploy and scale up a hydrogen production technology that operates without the use of fossil fuels, electrolysis or electricity. The process generates hydrogen gas and aluminium hydroxide, presenting a highly viable solution for industrial applications. Furthermore, the integrated use of heat, which is converted into electricity, enables a zero-carbon emission output, removing the necessity for additional carbon capture technologies.

Currently, the UK-based start-up holds multiple patents which are being filed for the production process, which also includes reactor design alongside an advanced AI-based control system. As per the agreement of the parliament, Siemens Energy will serve as the partner for the preferred technology.

Ian Calvert, CEO at Paragon Resources, stated, “Green hydrogen is set to play a pivotal role in the global energy transition, offering a scalable, zero-emission solution for hard-to-abate sectors such as heavy industry, chemicals and long-haul transport. Our mission is to enable a new standard for green hydrogen production: one that’s clean, efficient, and commercially viable without compromise. Siemens brings the industrial know-how and digital tools we need to rapidly move from pilot to full-scale deployment.”

According to H2 View, Siemens Energy will contribute automation and control systems, AI-driven optimisation, digital twin technology and cybersecurity solutions as part of the collaboration. The company will also leverage its Xcelerator platform to enhance process efficiency, optimise heat recovery and improve overall system performance.

Andy Lane, Senior Commercial Manager at Siemens, stated, “Tackling the challenge of upscaling hydrogen production will be impossible without a willingness to collaborate. As a technology company, we have an integral role to play in supporting businesses such as Paragon Resources in developing, scaling and commercialising their innovative new processes and make a real impact. By integrating our automation and digitalisation expertise, we look forward to working with the team at Paragon to drive the creation of a robust hydrogen market for the UK that also supports other facets of sustainability, including resource efficiency and circularity.”

Paragon’s technology is positioned as an alternative to conventional electrolysis by eliminating dependence on grid electricity or the availability of renewable power. This addresses key challenges such as high operational costs and supply constraints, particularly in regions with limited grid infrastructure or inconsistent renewable energy output.
