Imagine cooking your daily meals using hydrogen instead of LPG or electricity.
That’s exactly what Indian clean-tech startup Greenvize has introduced—a compact hydrogen-based cooking appliance designed for both homes and commercial kitchens.
This innovative system uses a built-in technology to generate hydrogen directly from water, right inside the cooking unit.
No cylinders, no pipelines—just instant fuel when you need it.
How This Hydrogen Stove Actually Works
The appliance uses a process called electrolysis.
In simple terms, it splits water into hydrogen and oxygen.
The hydrogen is then used as fuel for cooking, while oxygen is released into the air.
The best part:
The system starts producing hydrogen instantly when you turn the knob
There’s no need to store or transport gas
The only by-product is water vapor, making it a clean option
This means cleaner air in your kitchen and a more eco-friendly cooking experience.
Low Power, High Efficiency
According to Greenvize founder Sanjeev Choudhary, the system is surprisingly efficient.
It needs just 100 ml of water
Uses about 1 kWh of electricity
Can support up to 6 hours of cooking
In comparison, a typical induction stove may consume 9–12 kWh for the same duration.
The appliance can also be connected to rooftop solar panels, allowing completely off-grid, renewable cooking.
A Strong Alternative to LPG and Induction
With LPG prices fluctuating and electricity costs rising, Greenvize is positioning this system as a reliable alternative.
Unlike traditional hydrogen setups that require large infrastructure, this is a plug-and-play solution.
It’s especially useful for:
Hotels
Restaurants
Community kitchens
High-demand cooking environments
The company also offers flexibility.
The system can:
Generate and use hydrogen in real time
Or store it for later use in cylinders or tanks
What About Safety and Storage?
In its standard setup, the stove does not store hydrogen.
It produces and uses it instantly, reducing safety concerns.
However, for larger operations, hydrogen can be stored in:
High-pressure cylinders
Low-pressure tanks for short-term use
Greenvize can customize the setup depending on user needs.
Price and Availability
This futuristic cooking solution comes at a premium price:
Single-burner stove: Around ₹1,05,000 + GST
Double-burner stove: Around ₹1,50,000 + GST
The Bottom Line
Hydrogen cooking may sound futuristic, but it’s already here.
With clean emissions, lower energy usage, and no dependency on gas cylinders, this innovation could change how kitchens operate in the future—especially where efficiency and sustainability matter most.
