About TechForH2
TechForH2 is a competence center for multidisciplinary hydrogen research with the overarching goal to develop new technology for heavy vehicles as a key step in the transition to a fossil free transport system.
Our research areas
The center's research aims to accelerate the development of new technology that enables the use of hydrogen technology for heavy vehicles, that is aviation and marine and road applications. We work technology-focused and are currently concentrating on lightweight technology, material and additive manufacturing, sensors and safety, integration in vehicles, operation and optimization as well as new development of fuel cells. In order to better understand where the hydrogen world is headed, the center has also conducted research on how the hydrogen society can develop.
