Equipment

Our unique 240m² facility is fuel-safe and code-compliant. Designed for testing with flammable gases, it can be used with up to 8 process gases. Our labs include fuel cell test stations for cell and short stack development, applications testing, proton-exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell component screening and more.

• Greenlight G60 and G100 PEM fuel cell test station (800W, 1300W)
• 2 Arbin FCTS fuel cell test stations (500W)
• Scribner 850C, 850E, and 890E compact fuel cell test systems (100W) for screening PEM fuel cell components
• Greenlight E60 PEM electrolyser test station 2 kW (max 200A/10V) for cell development
• 5 custom-built electrolyser test stations (360W and can be coupled to 720W and 1080W) for PEM electrolyser component screening
