IABG - Testing under pressure: hydrogen in operation

To counteract global warming, a significant reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is necessary. This requires a far-reaching and rapid phase-out of the use of fossil fuels. Future energy needs must therefore be met by CO2-neutral energy sources. In addition to the direct use of electrical energy, hydrogen will be a mainstay of the energy system in the future and will affect energy supply, industry and transport as well as the building industry.

Qualification along the hydrogen chain

IABG already qualifies components and systems along the hydrogen chain, regardless of the industry: from safe electrolysers, to storage under high pressure or cryogenic conditions, to the efficient operation of fuel cell systems. IABG not only takes care of testing, but also the entire administrative process. In this way, your products receive approval as quickly as possible.

We test according to the following standards, among others: EC 79, EN 12245, IEC / DIN EN 61373 & ISO11119-2, UN ECE R134, UN ECE GTR 13, EU 406, EU 535, SAE J2601.

Overall system competence hydrogen technologies

Requirements definition through overall system simulation with regard to
- Power and energy demand
- Storage and energy conversion options
- Storage capacity, H2 consumption and range
Procurement advice and support
Operational monitoring and optimisation of the operating strategy of fuel cell systems
Calculation of Total Cost of Ownership and Life Cycle Assessment
Technology consulting along the entire H2 chain

Take advantage of our many years of expertise in qualification and optimisation.
We are happy to advise you! We support and accompany you in your H2 project in a solution-oriented manner and in close customer contact. Zero emissions is our common goal.
We think modern mobility concepts and make them fit for safe use today - low-emission driving and thus climate-friendly driving with H2 is becoming real.
