Fuel Cells
A fuel cell is an electrochemical energy conversion device that uses hydrogen or other fuels to produce electricity, water, and heat. It operates much like a battery but does not require electrical recharging.
Fuel cells can offer significant benefits over traditional energy technologies including:
- high energy efficiency (fuel cells are 2-3 times as efficient as internal combustion engines)
- a variety of fuels can be used
- operation at zero or near-zero emissions
- versatility and scalability (fuel cells can be applied in micro, portable, stationary, and transportation power applications)
- low maintenance costs, design flexibility and quiet operation
Those who are developing fuel cells require accurate tools to characterize their new designs and product advancements. Once these products are ready for mass manufacturing, our customers require production testing equipment and end-of-line testing equipment to ensure product quality and performance. Greenlight's fuel cell test stations provide essential development and production testing data.
