About

Founded in 2021, Swan-H is a private headquartered in Toulouse, France specializing in Hydrogen.

Swan-H is a French deep-tech startup that has invented the Mézailles reaction, a novel electrochemical process for carbon-free ammonia production. The technology uses boron-based mediator chemistry to activate nitrogen at moderate temperatures and pressures, requiring only electricity as an energy source. Unlike the traditional Haber-Bosch process, Swan-H's modular approach can integrate with intermittent renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, enabling on-site ammonia production for industrial facilities. The patented technology was initially developed at the LHFA lab of the CNRS in Toulouse and is now fully controlled by the company. Swan-H has received €1.3M in seed funding and aims to commercialize the technology by 2029.
