Technology Update, 
 
Board Changes 
 
& 
 
Establishment of Advisory Board 
 
Hydrogen Future Industries plc (AQSE: HFI), a developer of a proprietary wind 
-based green hydrogen production system, is pleased to provide an update on the 
complementary components of the system under development, alongside other 
corporate updates. 
 
Technology Update 
 
As announced on 28 April 2023, HFI expects to shortly commence a third and final 
testing phase of an upgraded version of the 1 metre diameter wind turbine. The 
upgraded wind turbine will be used to measure the energy output over an 8 to 12 
week period before work commences on a larger diameter commercial wind turbine. 
The data gained from the performance of the wind turbine will be compared to the 
wind tunnel results and used in the design of the larger diameter wind turbines. 
 
HFI has established a facility in Birmingham, UK, where work is ongoing to 
incorporate the variable hydraulic drive and/or electro-magnetic clutch, which 
are part of the patents acquired and announced on 5 October 2022, to increase 
efficiency and lower the cost of energy production. 
 
The concept testing of an electrolyser for the hydrogen production system is 
currently taking place in California, USA, led by quantum-physicist, Dr Nicholas 
Blake, a consultant to HFI and brother of Timothy Blake (Chief Executive Officer 
of HFI Energy Systems Limited, the Company's wholly owned development subsidiary 
and director of the Company's joint venture subsidiary, HFI IP Holdings 
Limited). The objective of the testing is to build an electrolyser with cheaper 
and more readily available materials that improves power efficiency and 
longevity. 
 
Board Changes 
 
Effective immediately, Daniel Maling, currently Non-Executive Chairman, will 
become Executive Chairman, taking on primary managerial responsibility for the 
Company. David Ormerod, currently Executive Director, will become a Non 
-Executive Director, allowing him to focus on other commitments while enabling 
the Company to continue to benefit from his significant energy industry 
expertise. 
 
Advisory Board 
 
The Company has formed a new hydrogen advisory board ("Advisory Board") to 
advise HFI's Board of Directors and review additional hydrogen-related 
technology opportunities. The Advisory Board will initially comprise Timothy 
Blake and Dr Nicholas Blake. 
 
Dr Blake holds a Ph.D. in quantum electrodynamics and has more than 30 years' 
postdoctoral research experience in this field. Dr Blake spent five years 
developing hydrogen fuel cell technology for the US Government prior to the 
technology being sold to Toyota Group. 
 
Daniel Maling, Executive Chairman of HFI, commented: 
 
"HFI is making excellent development progress, now from facilities in both the 
USA and UK. We are delighted to welcome the accomplished Dr Nicholas Blake to 
the Advisory Board and look forward to benefitting from his expertise as we gear 
up for subsequent testing phases with a larger diameter commercial system. We 
believe our system can achieve a breakthrough in green hydrogen production 
economics and look forward to reporting further updates as the testing programme 
advances."
