Hydrogen fuel cells are electrochemical devices used to convert the chemical energy of hydrogen into electrical energy, releasing heat in the process while producing water as the only by-product of the electrochemical reactions. There are several types of hydrogen fuel cells, including alkaline, proton exchange membrane (PEM), phosphoric acid, and solid oxide fuel cells. These technologies differ in numerous ways, most notably in the component materials used to support the electrochemical process. In this section you can find news items related to various aspects of fuel cell technologies. If you would like to see your news release published here and in our email newsletter, please feel free to contact Matjaž Matošec.
Nedstack Fuel Cell Technology, AE Driven Solutions GmbH, and the Chair of Production Engineering of E-Mobility Components (PEM) of RWTH Aachen University have announced a strategic partnership to accelerate the industrialization of PEM fuel cell technology in Europe.
On 3 April, Advent Technologies held an opening ceremony for its new fuel cell R&D and manufacturing facility at Hood Park in Charlestown, Massachusetts. This facility will allow the company to expand its production capacity and fulfil the rising global demand for electrochemistry components.
Alfa Laval has launched the first heat exchanger developed specifically for fuel cell systems. The new AlfaNova GL50 is an asymmetric gas-to-liquid plate heat exchanger suited to fuel cell systems as well as applications such as waste heat recovery, biogas post-treatment, and cooling of hydrogen from electrolyzers.
Alma Clean Power, Hydrogenious LOHC Technologies and Hydrogenious LOHC Maritime have announced a joint development agreement to engineer a fully integrated LOHC-SOFC (liquid organic hydrogen carrier-solid oxide fuel cell) power system for the HyNjord project supported by Enova.
HAV Hydrogen has received Approval in Principle (AiP) from DNV for its deck-based containerized hydrogen energy system for ships. The company will be ready to start manufacturing of the system during H2 of 2023, aiming for the first deliveries in 2024.
Chinese company Weichai Power has launched a stationary power solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system based on the technology of its strategic partner Ceres. At the launch ceremony held in Jinan, China, Weichai announced that its SOFC system has passed the EU CE certification of TÜD SÜD.
Ionomr Innovations’ Pemion® has achieved performance and durability testing results that surpass internationally recognized standards from the US Department of Energy and Hydrogen Europe, confirming the company’s hydrocarbon-based PEM and polymer is ready for widespread fuel cell applications.
In an effort to support growing demand for clean hydrogen generation, Chemours has announced a USD 200 million investment to increase capacity and advance technology for its Nafion™ ion exchange materials, to be located at the company’s manufacturing facility in Villers-Saint-Paul, France.
In a bid to develop fuel cell systems for ships and power generation and acquire technologies for green hydrogen production, Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering, the intermediate holding company of HD Hyundai, has signed a memorandum of understanding with Fraunhofer IKTS and Elcogen.
Johnson Matthey has selected Infor MES manufacturing execution system to digitise manufacturing operations, boost efficiency and traceability, and underpin ambitious growth plans for its hydrogen technologies business unit. The company will deploy Infor at its fuel cell plant in Swindon, UK.
