HYDRA OS platform

One engine. Four ways to use it.

HYDRA OS is the independent performance intelligence platform for water electrolysis. Assess, Verify, Monitor and Review all run on the same electrochemical engine.

Stage 1 · Data quality and normalisation

Checked before it is trusted.

Every dataset is checked for gaps, drift and stuck sensors, steady-state windows are found, and values are corrected to reference conditions before any comparison is made.

Stage 2 · Electrochemical engine

Physics that can be inspected.

A deterministic engine covering reaction kinetics, ohmic and transport losses, thermodynamic balances and degradation. Each module is an equation or a balance you can read.

Stage 3 · Uncertainty and cross-checks

Every finding carries its uncertainty.

Independent modules cross-check one another before a finding is released. Outputs become KPIs, reports, verdicts and alerts, each with its uncertainty and its sources.

From data to evidence.

Six stages, the same for every product. What changes between products is the question asked, not the engine that answers it.

HYDRA OS data flow

The engine.

At the core of HYDRA OS is a deterministic electrochemical engine: a large library of computational modules, each an equation or a balance that can be inspected. They cover reaction kinetics, ohmic and transport losses, thermodynamic balances and degradation. Independent modules cross-check one another before any finding is released, and every finding carries its uncertainty. Language models never perform calculations: they only draft report text from results the engine has already computed.

The product family.

HYDRA OS product family The HYDRA OS platform and its electrochemical engine at the base. Above it four products: Assess for OEMs, developers and owners; Verify for owners and OEMs; Monitor for owners and insurers; Review for advisers, lenders and insurers.

Data requirements.

What we need

Timestamped stack voltage and current (or current density), stack temperature and pressure. Cell voltages, gas purity (H₂ in O₂), electrolyte or water conductivity, and factory or site acceptance test curves improve the result but are optional. A log of shutdowns and maintenance events helps separate reversible from irreversible losses.

Formats

CSV or Excel exports from your historian or test bench. Other formats on request.

How it reaches us

Assessments: as files, with no connection to your plant. Monitoring: read-only from your historian or control network, integrated during commissioning.

Deployment.

  • From data files

    Assessments run on data files you export, with no connection to your plant. Nothing writes to your control system.

  • On-premise monitoring

    HYDRA Monitor runs inside your network, read-only, with no inbound connections. Air-gapped operation is confirmed for your site during scoping.

Questions.

Our OEM already monitors the stacks.

Keep it. HYDRA OS gives you an independent reading of the same data, which is what lenders, insurers and warranty discussions call for.

Is it safe to connect this to our plant?

HYDRA OS is read-only and advisory. It never writes to control or safety systems. Assessments need no connection at all, only an export.

Our data is confidential.

It stays on your site, or with us under NDA during an assessment, and it is deleted afterwards with written confirmation.

How do we know the numbers are right?

Every KPI follows a published definition, every figure carries its uncertainty, and every report records the data quality and the engine version used.

This asset runs for 20 years or more.

Open export formats, a documented data model and source-code escrow on request. Your evidence stays usable whatever happens.
