Edge computing company Armada and Eclipse Energy will partner to accelerate the commercialization of clean power and computing infrastructure technologies for industrial-scale applications, the companies said Oct. 21.
Eclipse Energy, formerly Gold H2, develops technology that converts legacy oil fields into clean hydrogen through bioconversion. The company said its process uses existing wells and infrastructure, eliminating the need for new drilling, electrolysis, or surface facilities. Eclipse recently completed what it described as the world’s first field trial demonstrating bio-stimulated hydrogen production from the subsurface.
Armada specializes in modular, full-stack edge computing infrastructure designed to meet rising digital and energy demand. Under the partnership, Armada plans to integrate Eclipse’s hydrogen production technology with its modular data centers to create off-grid, carbon-aware facilities.
“The demand for power in the datacenter sector has never been greater,” said Prabhdeep Sekhon, CEO of Eclipse Energy, in a statement. “By bringing our innovative subsurface solutions into partnership with Armada, we are addressing both the urgent need for clean, reliable power and the imperative to build with sustainability in mind.”
