About

The company
behind the reactor.

A Canadian energy technology company producing heat, hydrogen, and high-purity alumina from recycled metal and water.

Who we are

Built in Canada.
Proven in Hamilton.

GH Power is a Canadian energy technology company producing heat, hydrogen, and high-purity alumina from recycled metal and water.

Its Aluminum-Water Reactor has operated in Hamilton, Ontario. Reactor testing and product sampling are underway as GH Power builds toward full commercial production.

What we believe

Why we built this.

The question that started the company was narrow. Aluminum reacts with water and releases energy. It has been known for a very long time and never commercialized, because controlling the reaction and doing something useful with what it leaves behind are both hard problems.

We took the view that both were solvable, and that solving them produced something the energy market doesn't otherwise have: generation that needs no fuel licensing, no favourable geology, and no decade of regulatory approval — and that produces a saleable material rather than a waste stream.

That view is now an operating reactor in Hamilton, with reactor testing and product sampling underway. Hamilton's hydrogen is contracted under an executed offtake agreement. Offtake contracted. Deliveries scale with production.

Everything worth building is downstream of power. Our mission is to make it the easy part.

Where we’re going

Power that arrives with the need.

The goal is not a better power plant. It is an energy company that operates independently of the grid — where a site that needs power gets power, at the scale it needs, on the timeline it is already building to.

Modularity is what makes that a plan rather than an ambition. Capacity arrives in 2MW increments, so a site takes what it needs now and adds units as it grows. No minimum project size. No load forecast to commit to years ahead. Built for behind-the-meter. On-site use can avoid long interconnection queues; grid-parallel or export configurations may require utility approval.

And because every reactor produces saleable material alongside the energy, part of the cost of generating it is offset by something no other energy source produces.

That is the point of all of it: alternative energy as the natural choice rather than the principled one.
