HOUSTON, TX / ACCESS Newswire / HNO International, Inc. (OTC:HNOI), a leader in decentralized hydrogen energy solutions, today announced that it is scheduled to deploy and commission its first two HyGrid™ Intelligent Hydrogen Microgrids in Texas, just outside of Houston. The systems are set for delivery in mid-September and late October, respectively.
Each HyGrid™ MicroGrid site will deliver 4 megawatts (MW) of uninterrupted, clean, 24/7 electricity — all on less than 0.2 acres of land. By comparison, generating 4MW using conventional solar farms would typically require approximately 14 acres, highlighting HyGrid’s unprecedented land-use efficiency and compact design.
“This milestone marks the first real-world deployment of HyGrid™, and it will redefine how the world thinks about clean power infrastructure,” said Don Owens, Chairman and CEO of HNO International. “We’re delivering industrial-scale energy — clean, reliable, and continuous — from a footprint smaller than a parking lot.”
HyGrid™: More Power, Less Land, Lower Cost
HyGrid™ integrates advanced solar collection, on-site hydrogen production, fuel cell conversion, and AI-powered energy management into a compact, modular system. Each unit offers:
-
4MW of continuous off-grid power
-
Footprint of under 0.2 acres
-
Delivery price of 5–8 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh)
At this rate, each HyGrid™ site is projected to generate approximately $2.8 million in annual revenue — while offering electricity pricing well below the U.S. national residential average of 17.45 cents per kWh, and even lower than many state utility rates. For comparison:
-
California average: 30.55¢/kWh
-
North Dakota average: 11.69¢/kWh
-
Hawaii average: 42.44¢/kWh
Laying the Groundwork for the Future
These Texas installations are part of HNOI’s broader strategy to build out a distributed hydrogen infrastructure across the U.S. and globally. Each HyGrid™ MicroGrid serves as a self-contained clean energy hub — capable of powering communities, supporting microgrids, and serving as a node for green hydrogen production and distribution.
With growing demand for resilient, off-grid power and rising energy costs across the U.S., HyGrid™ MicroGrid offers a scalable, sustainable, and economically competitive alternative to traditional fossil-based and centralized energy systems.
