The premiere is set for 4:01 PM EDT.<\/p>\n<p>ThermoLoop sits at the core of the strategy of the California-based company, headquartered in Santa Clarita and traded on the OTCQB under the ticker <strong>NEWH<\/strong>. The underlying principle is straightforward: instead of powering an electrolyzer with expensive electricity \u2014 which in conventional processes accounts for up to 73% of total production costs \u2014 the system draws directly on heat. A continuous, abundant heat source already exists: nuclear reactors, and small modular reactors in particular. SMRs generate high-temperature heat with no greenhouse gas emissions during operation, making them a natural fit for ThermoLoop&#8217;s approach.<\/p>\n<p>The project stems from a structured research collaboration with the <strong>University of California Santa Barbara<\/strong> (UCSB), launched in August 2023. Since then, the team has designed and built a reactor test bench, successfully achieving the separation of hydrogen and oxygen from water through a thermochemical cycle \u2014 a concrete result, not merely a theoretical one. Existing thermochemical processes typically require temperatures around 2,000\u00b0C or rely on inefficient multi-stage cycles. ThermoLoop aims to do things differently: a redox looping process operating below 1,000\u00b0C, lowering the technological barrier and paving the way for integration with next-generation reactors.<\/p>\n<p>In 2025, NewHydrogen filed two provisional patent applications in collaboration with UCSB, the second of which includes improvements to materials and the first public description of a novel isothermal hydrogen production process. The company also signed a memorandum of understanding with <strong>NuCube<\/strong> to integrate ThermoLoop with the <strong>NuSun<\/strong> microreactor. On the financial side, in April 2025 the stock was uplisted from the OTC Pink Market to the OTCQB Venture Market, a marketplace reserved for development-stage companies that meet stricter transparency requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The market backdrop underscores the significance. Goldman Sachs has estimated that the clean hydrogen economy could be worth <strong>$12 trillion<\/strong>. Reaching that potential requires competitive production costs, and nuclear heat is one of the few levers capable of shifting those numbers in a structural way. NewHydrogen is not alone in pursuing this direction, but its combination of university research, filed patents, and agreements with microreactor developers gives it a tangible foothold in the field.<\/p>\n<p>What exactly will be revealed on October 19 remains undisclosed for now. The fact that the company explicitly refers to an &#8220;engineering milestone&#8221; \u2014 rather than a program update or a commercial agreement \u2014 suggests that laboratory results have crossed a meaningful threshold. Should ThermoLoop demonstrate stable efficiency below 1,000\u00b0C with scalable materials, integration with SMRs would no longer be a prospect \u2014 it would become a buildable project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NewHydrogen will unveil an engineering milestone linked to ThermoLoop on October 19, 2026 \u2014 the technology that produces clean hydrogen using water and heat from small modular reactors.
