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.
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.
