Beijing Hydelitz New Technology Co., Ltd. is a high-tech enterprise specializing in the research, development, and industrialization of methanol-reforming high-temperature proton exchange membrane (HT-PEM) fuel cell technology. Founded in December 2017 and located in the Beijing Daxing International Hydrogen Energy Demonstration Zone, the company originates from over a decade of research and development at Beihang University. Hydelitz has established itself as a provider of off-grid hydrogen production, power generation, and heating equipment and solutions.
The company's business model is centered on its vertically integrated product line, which includes core components and complete systems. Their product portfolio features high-temperature proton exchange membranes (HT-PEM), membrane electrode assemblies (MEA), fuel cell stacks, methanol-to-hydrogen production systems, and integrated power generation and combined heat and power (CHP) systems. Hydelitz serves various markets that require decentralized power, such as telecom base stations, off-grid residential and industrial power, and auxiliary power units for vehicles and marine applications. The company's technology addresses the challenges of hydrogen storage and transportation by enabling on-site production from methanol, which is then used directly in their fuel cells.
Hydelitz has achieved significant milestones, including being recognized as a “specialized, refined, differential, and innovational” (SRDI) enterprise in Beijing and establishing a postdoctoral research workstation in 2023. The firm has led the development of industry standards for HT-PEM and MEA testing methods and holds dozens of core invention patents. The technology has been successfully applied in various scenarios, including base station power supplies and off-grid CHP systems, with some products being exported. Since its seed round in 2021, the company has progressed through several funding stages, completing its Series A financing in late 2024.
