Fuel cell technology is at the heart of our Platinum business’ innovation activity

We recognise the importance of working with talented partners to support our business objectives and – in particular – our sustainability goals. This approach to partnership is at the heart of Anglo American Platinum’s FutureSmart Mining™ efforts.

One of the companies we partner with is Greyrock, a leader in small scale gas-to-liquids technology.

These catalysts – which use platinum from our mines – help to generate enough power to run a vehicle but without the noise or harmful CO2 and other noxious emissions of a normal combustion engine.

Launch of the Hydrogen Council

We are committed to supporting the development of the hydrogen and fuel cell sectors through partnerships. And that’s why we are members of the Hydrogen Council, launched at the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting – Davos 2017.
