6 LOHC hydrogen storage and release systems are in operation in extensive in house and field tests HQ in Erlangen Automated LOHC hydrogen storage system System combined with Siemens SILYZER and PV Up to 10 Nm 3 /h hydrogen storage in LOHC Continuous operation since May 2015 OneReactor 5/5 World s first fully operational OneReactor system with 4 Nm³/h hydrogen uptake and 2 Nm³/h hydrogen release capacity System developed in cooperation with Helmholtz Institute HI ERN IAO in Stuttgart Automated LOHC hydrogen release system Up to 30 Nm 3 hydrogen production Integration into smart grid control system

7 Hydrogenious has realized the first LOHC based renewable hydrogen storage and transport project Hydrogenious HQ (Erlangen) Fraunhofer IAO (Stuttgart) 98kWp Hydrogenious HQ Excess heat 10kW ReleaseBOX 33 PEM Fuel Cell Transport of loaded LOHC 50kW Siemens PEM Electrolyzer StorageBOX 10 electric car filling station 6

8 In house LOHC hydrogen storage system HQ in Erlangen System combined with Siemens SILYZER and PV Continuous operation since May 2015 Medium storage of 0.6 kg/h H 2 (6.7 Nm 3 /h; 20 kw) Medium storage load 20 kw

9 Strategic cooperation with MAN Diesel&Turbo focuses on product development for merchant hydrogen infrastructure StorageBOX 10 StoragePLANT MAN Diesel&Turbo is a global technology leader for large scale reactor systems for the chemical and petro chemical industry Cooperation for development of industrial scale LOHC hydrogenation reactors based on MAN s proprietary salt bed reactor technology Engineering and design of first pilot test reactor in

10 Our LOHC technology has significant advantages in performance and handling compared to competing technologies Our LOHC is Efficient 630 Nm 3 H 2 / m 3 LOHC 6.23 wt% 1.9 MWh / m³ LOHC Safe Non explosive Not classified as dangerous good (ADR, etc.) Easy to handle Diesel like liquid Ambient conditions Low priced <5 /kg Reusable 9

11 LOHC hydrogen release system ReleaseBox in field IAO in Stuttgart 10

12 The first commercial applications in USA are being realized together with the United Hydrogen Group in 2017 Regional U.S. hydrogen distributor with >50 customers (Industry and mobility) System delivery: Q Current situation: Limited economical distribution radius due to low transport capacities of pressure tube trailer technology Targeted setting: Expansion of supply radius from ca. 300 km to up to 700 km through use of highcapacity LOHC technology Initial pilot systems contracted by UHG StorageBOX 100 (9.1 kg/h H 2 ) Centralized H 2 production ReleaseBOX 33 (3 kg/h H 2 ) Industry customers ReleaseBOX 2.5 (0.23 kg/h H 2 ) Power Plants 11

13 Hydrogenious and 11 partners focus on LOHC based hydrogen refueling stations in Kopernikus research program The Kopernikus Projects form Germany s largest coordinated research program Funded by the German Ministry of Research > 90 companies and (research) institutes involved Four specific excellence clusters Decentral H 2 logistics project with focus on LOHC based H 2 refueling stations Budget of ~4 Mio. EUR over next three years 12 partners involved including Linde, ThyssenKrupp, Clariant and AREVA 12
