Double sided auctions for one single goal.

Hintco's core task is the implementation of competitive bidding processes for the purchase and sale of clean hydrogen-based products and other low-carbon commodities for shaping the global energy transition.
Hintco releases new draft hydrogen sales agreement and starts market sounding on future tenders’ sales auctions

Hintco has published a new draft hydrogen sales agreement (HSA). It will serve as the contractual basis for the anticipated H2Global Pilot Auction sales auctions and is accessible for review.
Hintco is also launching an online survey to gather valuable feedback from the private sector, specifically potential offtakers. This survey offers industry stakeholders a critical opportunity to help shape the design of upcoming H2Global sales auctions and ensure alignment with market needs.
How it works

To stimulate emerging markets for clean hydrogen and low-emission fuels, Hintco acts as a market maker. It buys hydrogen from early production facilities and sells it to end-users. Grants from public or philanthropic bodies bridge the gap between supply prices and demand prices. At this early stage, buyers and sellers have varying expectations on price, volume, and contract terms. Hintco uses H2Global’s double-auction mechanism to bridge these expectations, mitigating risks and providing the certainty needed for producers to finance projects and end-users to purchase these products on acceptable terms.
