HNO International Business Summary

HNO International, Inc. (HNOI) is a green hydrogen technology firm specializing in the engineering, design, and integration of modular hydrogen infrastructure. The company generates revenue through a multi-pronged model that includes the facilitation of hydrogen equipment delivery as a commissioned agent, engineering services, and the licensing of its proprietary decarbonization technologies. Its primary business segments encompass zero-emission vehicle infrastructure, industrial hydrogen gas solutions for sectors like ammonia and steel, and internal combustion engine maintenance via its Hydrogen Carbon Cleaner (HCC). As of March 2026, HNOI has expanded its footprint into the digital infrastructure space through its EcoFlare Power division, which converts flared natural gas into ultra-low-cost energy for mid-range data centers and Bitcoin mining. Positioned as a niche provider of decentralized, scalable hydrogen solutions, HNOI competes directly with larger players such as Plug Power and Nikola, as well as specialized firms like Syzygy Plasmonics and Kaizen Clean Energy, by focusing on gaseous hydrogen efficiency and rapid-deployment turnkey systems. Leadership is spearheaded by Founder, Chairman, and CEO Donald Owens, a former patent attorney for Western Electric and Bell Labs with an engineering background from Kettering University and a law degree from Georgetown. Owens, who holds over 15 years of R&D experience in hydrogen electrolyzer technology and 19 U.S. patents, assumed the CEO role in late 2024 to lead the company’s transition from research to large-scale commercial production. The executive team includes Hossein Haririnia, who serves as Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, and Greg Heller as Chief Technology Officer. The company is publicly traded on the OTCQB (Ticker: HNOI), with Owens maintaining a significant ownership stake of approximately 29%. The board of directors, which includes William Parker, oversees a strategic roadmap currently focused on a NASDAQ uplisting and the execution of high-value offtake agreements, such as a recent $10 million mobility contract and a pilot program with drone manufacturer Cellen, Inc.
