Zepp Hybrid Systems
Hydrogen fuel cells for clean, mobile power generation
At zepp.solutions, we develop and supply fuel cell systems for various applications based on our scalable technology platform.
Hydrogen fuel cell technology is especially attractive for applications that combine a demand for high continuous power output with long operational uptimes. Current alternative energy storage systems, such as battery technology, require long charging times and the costs of these systems scale linearly with the required energy content. Twice the amount of energy requires twice the amount of batteries, costing twice as much. For hydrogen-electric systems, only the amount of hydrogen storage has to be doubled, the fuel cell remains the same. Additionally, these operations benefit strongly from the quick refuelling capabilities hydrogen fuel cell systems offer.
To configure the optimum zero-emission power-system for our clients, we develop custom fuel cell hybrid systems, combining hydrogen fuel cell technology with a small battery energy storage. This battery energy storage acts as a buffer between the fuel cell and the powered application.
The results are uniquely designed fuel cell hybrid systems combining the best of both hydrogen and batteries, allowing for short refuelling times and long continuous operations at high energy demands, while being able to facilitate high peak loads without delay at a competitive overall system cost. The configuration, integration, production and operational control of these client-specific systems are our key competence.
