Solutions across the hydrogen value chain
Critical Energy Infrastructure – Made Resilient by Hydrogen!
HyGrid
A container-based energy system that stores renewable energy and delivers it as needed. Excess electricity is converted into hydrogen via electrolysis, stored safely, and reconverted into electrical energy when needed. The oxygen produced in the process is reused in subsequent steps, such as water treatment.
Innovative PEM electrolyzer for high-throughput production at reduced costs
HyVentus
The reference stack for scaling up electrolyzer production for industrial applications. Designed for high production rates and efficient performance across a variety of applications. You can use this stack as a reference design to serve as the direct foundation for your own production and further development.
Value-added community for Hydrogen System Production
Solidarity between research and industry
The market ramp-up of hydrogen systems requires industrial expertise, scalable processes, and cost-effective production solutions. The Hydrogen System Production Value Creation Community offers industrial companies the opportunity to specifically align and further develop their existing capabilities for hydrogen-based production systems.
Through collaboration between research institutions and industry partners, practical production solutions are developed, tested, and scaled up for industrial use. Companies benefit from access to expertise, infrastructure, and a strong network of partners, positioning themselves early on as qualified partners in production and in the development of electrolyzer and fuel cell solutions.
