TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Canadian company Cipher Neutron Inc. (“Cipher Neutron” or “CN”) is very pleased to announce that it has appointed the renowned Dr. Bruno Pollet to its Advisory Board.

In line with Cipher Neutron’s corporate strategy, Dr. Pollet will be advising Cipher Neutron in advanced scientific matters of innovative and breakthrough hydrogen electrolyser technology, identification of established qualified clients for Cipher Neutron’s AEM Electrolyser Technology to produce Green Hydrogen and connecting Cipher Neutron with strategic investors in the expanding global capital markets that aim to greatly reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHGs) while seeking lucrative potential exposure from new entrants in the hydrogen economy.

Leadership – Dr. Bruno Pollet

Dr. Bruno Pollet is a member of the Council of Engineers for the Energy Transition (CEET): An Independent Advisory Council to the United Nations’ Secretary-General, and a CEET Hydrogen Task Force leader. He is also member of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) Hydrogen Task Force, the International Energy Agency (IEA) Hydrogen Technology Collaboration Program (TCP) Renewable Hydrogen Task Force and the IEA Technology Collaboration Programme on Advanced Fuel Cells.

Dr. Pollet is also the President of the Green Hydrogen Division of the International Association for Hydrogen Energy (IAHE), member of the Board of Directors of the IAHE, member of the Board of Directors of the Canadian Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association (CHFCA), member of the Board of Directors of Hydrogène Québec, leader of H2CAN 2.0 (a cluster of hydrogen R&D groups in Canada), and Director of the UQTR Research Hydrogen Institute (HRI- Institut de recherche sur l’hydrogène at the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières).

He has recently been acting as the Scientific Advisor of TES Canada H2 Inc., one of the largest producers of renewable hydrogen and natural gas in Canada. He also acts as the “Hydrogen Champion” and Scientific Committee member of the Energy Transition Valley (Vallée de la Transition Énergétique – VTÉ). He was awarded two prestigious research chairs: NSERC Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Green Hydrogen Production, and the Innergex Renewable Energy Research Chair focussing on the next generation of hydrogen production and water electrolysers (electrolysis of water). He was also awarded the “IAHE Sir William Grove Award” in recognition of his leadership and his ground-breaking works in hydrogen, fuel cell and electrolyser technologies IAHE. In 2022, Bruno G. Pollet was invited to witness at the Senate Committee on Energy, the Environment and Natural Resources and the Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development, at the House of Commons in Canada.
