Jericho (TSXV:JEV) has signed a memorandum of understanding with Ramp Equity to bring the zero-emission hydrogen boiler, to the South Korean market.

Ramp Equity Capital Partners is a private equity advisory fund focusing on renewable energy.

Ramp is affiliated with one of South Korea’s largest renewables producing companies. It is actively exploring its entrance into the hydrogen market.

The MOU aims to deploy DCC boilers as part of the affiliate’s overall hydrogen growth strategy.

South Korean market

South Korea is a highly industrialized nation with a large manufacturing sector. It has laid out a goal of becoming 100 per cent carbon neutral by 2050.

It plans to source a third of its energy from hydrogen by that date. This makes the gas the largest single source of energy nationally.

This push to decarbonize the country has the government and South Korean businesses looking for alternative clean energy sources, with hydrogen being a major focus.

JEV and Ramp believe that South Korean industry could reduce emissions immediately by using the boiler technology. It aligns their operations with the government’s aggressive renewables and decarbonization plan.
