Ways2H waste-to-hydrogen production facilities will supply Element 2 hydrogen refuelling stations to serve as many as 1,600 fuel cell buses per day. The two companies envision as many as 40 sites that will each provide 500 kg to 1 ton per day of renewable hydrogen fuel. As they begin to arrive in the UK, this will be enough for a heavy-duty truck, lorry or other Heavy Goods Vehicle to cover 11,000 road kilometres (6,835 miles). The first project is planned for a location in Scotland, a leading hydrogen nation that has aggressive goals to develop a hydrogen economy.

Ways2H aims to solve two problems: demand for renewable hydrogen to replace fossil fuels and reduce greenhouse gas emissions for transportation and power generation, and the need for sustainable and affordable waste disposal. This solution seeks to improve the global environment by eliminating waste while producing carbon-negative renewable hydrogen. With 95% of hydrogen fuel currently produced from natural gas or other fossil fuels, the world needs new sources of renewable hydrogen to reach a carbon-negative future. The thermochemical process producing the syngas leaves char as a byproduct, which is virtually pure carbon. The char is collected and used as fuel together with the remaining tail-gas to generate the energy needed for the thermochemical conversion of the waste feedstock. Therefore, the system self-supplies the energy and heat it needs to operate and produce hydrogen and does not require any outside fuel except to start up a new unit for the first time.
