Equatic Harnesses $11.6 Million to Power Green Hydrogen Revolution
California, Wednesday, 13 August 2025.
With $11.6 million secured, Equatic turbocharges its seawater electrolysis tech, promising a greener, hydrogen-fueled future. This breakthrough not only curbs carbon emissions but champions sustainable energy solutions.
Equatic’s Bold Move in Green Hydrogen
Equatic has successfully secured $11.6 million in a Series A funding round, a significant boost from Temasek Trust’s Catalytic Capital for Climate and Health, along with other key investors including Kibo Invest. This funding aims to expand their groundbreaking seawater electrolysis technology, which not only removes carbon from the atmosphere but also generates green hydrogen. This dual approach positions Equatic as a leader in tackling the twin challenges of decarbonisation and clean energy production [1][2][3].
How Equatic Turns Seawater into Green Fuel
The technology developed by Equatic is nothing short of a climate superhero. By pumping seawater into onshore facilities, their process harnesses renewable energy to split the water and cleverly purges carbon dioxide by neutralizing it with a contact to the atmosphere. The operation discharges the seawater enriched with dissolved inorganic carbon, converting it into green hydrogen—a boon for sustainable energy enthusiasts [1][4][5].
Scaling Operations Across the Globe
Equatic is not just dreaming big; it’s acting on it. They have already deployed pilot plants in Los Angeles and Singapore. Emboldened by recent funding, they are pushing forward with plans for a demonstration plant in Singapore and a full-scale commercial plant in Canada. These ventures are not merely ambitious, but they are essential to addressing climate change on a global scale [1][3][5].
Investors Backing Innovation
This tale of innovation attracts partners who see the future in green. Investors like Stacey Nicholas, Adam McKay, and Lee Cooper have jumped on board, seeing Equatic’s projects as more than just a business opportunity—they’re a chance to be part of a transformative solution for our planet. According to James Marshall, CEO of Kibo Invest, Equatic stands as a quintessential example of deep-tech innovation answering global calls for decarbonisation and cleaner energy [1][2][5].
