A NASA And Lockheed Martin Inventor Is Now Building Hydrogen Power Units In Florida

VIVIFY Technology, a private South Florida hydrogen company, has recruited a former Lockheed Martin Inventor of the Year, Buddy Paul, to build its 1MW "Flying Pig" power unit. It is "all powered by water," CEO Jason Herring says, and one unit can run 20 years on 500 gallons and power about 1,000 homes. The headline claim still awaits independent testing. VIVIFY is private, so the listed hydrogen exposure runs through Plug Power, Bloom Energy and Cummins, with Lockheed Martin as the pedigree link.A close-up of the Lockheed F-104 Starfighter by Emine Kamaci via Shutterstock
