Hello everyone and welcome back to CleanTechies the Podcast. This is episode 54. 

Today our episode is with Mariam Awara. Mariam is COO at Pulsenics Inc. Pulsenics is a Canada-based IoT device company that is helping enable electrochemistry at scale. A simpler way to put it is; they have a hardware and software solution that helps significantly reduce the operating costs of electrochemical industrial processes. Today our conversation largely revolved around how they are helping significantly reduce the costs of creating green hydrogen. 

We discussed the existing problem, how their tech works, and how they are solving it. To give you a precursor, in the event you're not a big fan of deep science, they have a device that helps monitor the internals of expensive machinery such as electrolyzes to identify when issues are starting so they can be fixed before a large breakdown. The same way preventative health helps avoid health crises. 

Please enjoy today's conversation!
