Modern Hydrogen, a provider of distributed hydrogen production and carbon management, and Mesa Solutions, a provider of on-site power generation, announced a strategic partnership to deliver a “groundbreaking” clean power solution for data centers. The two companies officially signed the partnership agreement on Tuesday at the POWERGEN International Conference in Houston, with Modern Hydrogen CEO Tony Pan and Mesa Solutions CEO Scott Gromer making joint announcements. This solution allows data centers to deploy scalable, firm power solutions using every natural gas connection available — without depending on the grid. By combining Mesa Solutions’ experience with multi-megawatt on-site power generation with Modern Hydrogen’s distributed technology for decarbonizing natural gas, the partnership aims to enable data centers to access scalable hydrogen power — without waiting for hydrogen infrastructure buildout or paying for costly delivery.

Industry leaders unveil collaboration to enable next-generation, reliable, and cost-effective hydrogen power generation from natural gas Modern Hydrogen, a leader in distributed hydrogen production and carbon management, and Mesa Solutions, a premier provider of on-site power generation, today announced a strategic partnership to deliver a groundbreaking clean power solution for data centers. The two companies officially signed the partnership agreement at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday at the POWERGEN International Conference in Dallas.

Houston, TX—February 11, 2025—Modern Hydrogen, a leader in distributed hydrogen production and carbon management, and Mesa Solutions, a premier provider of on-site power generation, today announced a strategic partnership to deliver a groundbreaking clean power solution for data centers. The two companies officially signed the partnership agreement at 10:30a.m. Tuesday at the POWERGEN International Conference in Houston, with Modern Hydrogen CEO Tony Pan and Mesa Solutions CEO Scott Gromer making joint announcements.

Mesa Solutions, which specializes in natural gas or liquid propane-powered mobile generators and engines, and Modern Hydrogen, a provider of distributed hydrogen production and carbon management, announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) at PowerGen International, Feb. 11-13, in Dallas, Texas, for development of a clean power solution for data centers.

Puget Sound Energy (PSE), Washington’s largest utility, and Modern Hydrogen, a clean energy technology leader, today announced a strategic partnership to drive the adoption of advanced decarbonized technologies in support of meeting Washington state’s clean energy goals. Modern Hydrogen’s innovative carbon removal technology enables large-scale CO2 emissions reduction in Washington’s most difficult-to-decarbonize commercial & industrial sectors. By joining forces, PSE and Modern Hydrogen will promote the development of distributed methane pyrolysis technology, a groundbreaking solution that removes carbon from natural gas at the point-of-use for commercial and industrial operations.

The partnership is targeting commercial and industrial clients.

Washington state multi-utility Puget Sound Energy Inc. announced a strategic partnership to help its commercial and industrial gas customers deploy Modern Hydrogen Inc.’s on-site hydrogen production and carbon capture and utilization technology. The partnership will identify customers interested in installing Modern Hydrogen’s methane pyrolysis equipment in order to meet their decarbonization goals. Puget Sound Energy and Modern Hydrogen will support technology deployments, conduct market analysis and evaluate customer deployments in site-specific applications, the companies said in a Jan. 29 press release.

The Woodinville, Wash., company announced a partnership Wednesday with Puget Sound Energy (PSE), a major Seattle-area utility, in which the two are collaborating to find industrial customers interested in Modern Hydrogen’s climate friendly technology. That could include steel and cement makers and pulp-and-paper manufacturers that use processes requiring ultra-high temperatures that are difficult to reach through low-carbon means.

Woodinville, Wash.-based clean tech startup Modern Hydrogen raised $25 million in new funding. The company confirmed the new investment after GeekWire spotted a regulatory filing. Existing and new investors participated in the latest round. “We plan to talk more about our new strategic partnerships after the New Year that expands into new markets, and how we can enhance the value of existing gas infrastructure already on the ground, and speed up carbon capture and utilization,” Modern Hydrogen CEO Tony Pan said in a statement.

A Woodinville company this week demonstrated an element of its road, literally and figuratively, to making energy cleaner and cheaper. Modern Hydrogen developed a process, methane pyrolysis, which strips carbon out of natural gas, creating a solid form of carbon whose uses include sequestration into roads. Additionally, stripping carbon out of natural gas leaves hydrogen that can be used for clean power.

Methane pyrolysis, an innovative process converting natural gas into hydrogen by removing carbon at the point of use, offers a promising solution. This approach allows industries to cut their carbon footprint without requiring new infrastructure or straining the overburdened electrical grid. Modern Hydrogen, a technology company focused on decarbonizing industrial processes, specializes in methane pyrolysis. Utilizing existing natural gas infrastructure, their technology offers a scalable and efficient way to reduce emissions while integrating smoothly into industrial systems, eliminating the need for major upgrades.
