Hydrogen Conference in Trondheim, Norway
Giantleap will be represented with two presentations at an international conference to be held on May 14-15 in Trondheim, Norway. The conference is organised by Trondheim’s NTNU University and has a global scope, with keynote speakers from EU, USA, China and Canada. Continue reading “Hydrogen Conference in Trondheim, Norway”
MoZEES Annual Meeting
Giantleap will be represented by Ivar Halvorsen at the 2018 Annual Meeting of MoZEES, a Norwegian research group focused on zero-emission mobility gathering all main research institutions in Norway.
Ivar will be presenting the recent advances in Low-Frequency EIS for PEM Fuel-Cell Diagnostics.
Interfaces for Hydrogen Range Extenders
One of the main features of the Giantleap project is the idea of using fuel cells to extend the range of battery buses. To do so, battery buses and range extenders must be equipped with standardised electrical, mechanical and communication interfaces. Continue reading “Interfaces for Hydrogen Range Extenders”
Full-Size Stacks to Integrate in the FC System
ElringKlinger delivered several stack modules in the Giantleap project for integration in the fuel-cell system and for bench testing. These modules are actually more than a stack of fuel cells, and include multiple sensors and an innovative passive recirculation system. Continue reading “Full-Size Stacks to Integrate in the FC System”
