NewHydrogen, Inc. (OTCQB: NEWH), a small US clean-hydrogen technology company listed on the OTCQB market, announced on July 7, 2026 that it is automating its Engineering Test Unit (ETU), a component of the development pathway for its ThermoLoop technology. The company describes ThermoLoop as a process that uses water and heat, rather than electricity, to produce low-cost clean hydrogen.
In its public materials, NewHydrogen describes its mission as developing ThermoLoop into what the company calls the world’s lowest-cost clean hydrogen, sourcing the heat the process needs from options such as concentrated solar, geothermal, nuclear power, or industrial waste heat, rather than the electricity that conventional electrolyzer-based hydrogen production depends on. The company has said electricity is the largest single cost driver in conventional electrolysis, and that its thermochemical, water-and-heat approach is intended to sidestep that cost. Against that backdrop, the company frames the ETU automation as an engineering step toward that goal: by moving from manual, attended testing to continuous, round-the-clock runs, NewHydrogen said it expects to gather data faster on the ThermoLoop process as it works toward a future pilot plant.
According to the announcement, the ETU is designed to serve as the bridge between bench-scale laboratory experiments and a future pilot plant. By automating the unit’s controls, the company said its engineering team will gain continuous, round-the-clock testing capability, with greater precision and repeatability than manual operation allowed.
CEO Steve Hill said manual testing had previously required constant engineer attention. The company said automation is intended to let the team spend more time interpreting data rather than managing test equipment. NewHydrogen stated that the goal of the move is to accelerate the development timeline toward a commercial pilot plant.
The company’s statements about ThermoLoop’s ability to produce low-cost clean hydrogen using water and heat instead of electricity are characterizations made by NewHydrogen in its own disclosure and have not been independently verified by GSN.
The disclosure was published July 7, 2026 via GlobeNewswire. Readers interested in further detail on the ETU automation project or the ThermoLoop technology are directed to the company’s original announcement and its other public disclosures.
